Amber Valletta Joins the Spring 2009 Supermodel Threat for Loewe January 13, 2009 3:55 pm >> The supermodel campaign wave that started in Fall 2008 just keeps expanding in Spring 2009 — we've got Naomi Campbell and Linda Evangelista for Dsquared2, Gisele Bundchen and Kate Moss for Versace, Stephanie Seymour for Valentino, Claudia Schiffer for Yves Saint Laurent, and now, Amber Valletta in a stunning campaign for Loewe. The move is logical, since brands are looking to squeeze out every penny they can this season, and these models are known to drive the money. As for this set, Steven Klein did the honors — props to Stuart Vevers for the art direction, which is surely going to help him on his mission to bring Loewe back to the forefront.
