Last week, Karen Millen announced that Tyra Banks is now the face of the London-based fashion brand. The capsule collection would feature the supermodel’s favourite fashion Fall trends, with plans to celebrate “ageless women who are unapologetically themself no matter age, size or style.”
“I am thrilled to be part of the Karen Millen ICONS Series and feel honored to be featured alongside some of the most iconic supermodels in history. It humbles me to call them peers. People are going to channel their inner catwalk in these dynamic pieces as they power-strut down the runways of their world. The collection exudes glam meets luxury, and I love that the price point makes them affordable for everybody everywhere”, said Tyra Banks, Campaign Creative Director.
The ICONS series has been an ongoing campaign series for Karen Millen since 2022, highlighting supermodels who ruled the catwalks and front covers of glossy magazines during the Eighties, Nineties, and Noughties.
“We are so thrilled to work with Tyra Banks, her radiant charisma, natural beauty, and steadfast diligence make her an indisputable ICON. With female empowerment at the heart of the brand, this latest campaign promises to embody the core values of our customers”, said Natasha Hackett, Karen Millen Brand Director.
The campaign was shot at Milk Studios in Los Angeles, California (August 2023). Collaborating with the Karen Millen team and photographer Laretta Houston, Tyra Banks is also the Creative Director of this latest campaign, bringing to life Tyra’s vision of her collaboration with Karen Millen.
