Kathy McKinnon Styles New Lexus Spots

2012-06-12

Stylist Kathy McKinnon checked in with some new tvcs and stills from a recent shoot for Lexus produced by Radical Media, agency Saatch i& Saatchi, with world renowned German Director Christian Aeby.

She dressed glamorous models in evening attire that were blasted with water canons. Warm golden lighting, shooting water, gold & metallic dresses, dark men’s smoking jackets and bodies bracing against the force created a strong look.

The evening wear was water tested beforehand to see how it preformed and the final selection was determined by which fabrics created good body shapes, taking into account the high pressure of the water canons.

For an underwater sequence she styled the model in a silk chiffon Akira dress with a floating three meter train. The fabric had been designed with a series of burn holes, which let the water, pass through. It created an image of an ethereal-like mermaid, dark blonde hair and dress colour worked like a treat.
