And so the story goes they wore the clothes…
Many online news sources are currently featuring the story of David and Iman’s latest exciting collaboration. They are to appear together for the very first time in the launch advertising campaign for the H Hilfiger range from Tommy Hilfiger‘s 2004 spring collection. Here are some quotes from the official press release:
“David Bowie and Iman bring everything I’m looking for to represent this brand — music, style, elegance, creativity, sophistication — they’re a living testament to all that influences and inspires me,” said Hilfiger. “David is not only a rock ‘n’ roll legend and a true artist, he’s also a style icon whose evolving look over the years has had a huge impact on the world of fashion and music. And Iman, in addition to being the ultimate supermodel and a style icon in her own right, is the ideal woman — smart, entrepreneurial, chic, beautiful, ambitious and creative. Together they communicate the essence of the H Hilfiger lifestyle perfectly, and I am honored to feature them in my new campaign.”
“I very much admire Tommy’s ability to weave so many influences into his work,” said David Bowie. “Iman and I are thrilled to be working with him.”
“I’m very taken by Tommy’s new H Hilfiger line,” said Iman. “And working with both David and Ellen Von Unwerth on this project is a real plus, and such a lot of fun.”
The campaign, which was shot by famous photographer Ellen Von Unwerth while David and Iman were in Amsterdam recently, will appear in selected American Men’s and Women’s magazines in April 2004. H Hilfiger is Tommy Hilfiger’s ‘gold standard’ brand, and you can take a look at some of the clothes by clicking here.
