Steven Meisel Shoots Linda Evangelista for MOSCHINO

Linda Evangelista, fashion icon and perennial supermodel has become the face of Moschino’s Autumn Winter 2014 campaign. The campaign, shot by long time friend and collaborator Steven Meisel is executed in a surprisingly elegant style, one that couldn’t be further from the label’s latest haute-kitsch “McDonalds” collection designed by Jeremy Scott.

Linda Evangelista brings some credibility back to Moschino’s latest ‘fast fashion’ collection, 2014.

Linda, 49, looks every bit the lady in this campaign, shown perched on a stool in what looks to be a (relatively) conservative coat and logo’d slingbacks. The handbag, sort of an ironic Chanel-McDonalds hybrid, is the only nod to Moschino’s recent collection, and adds a little jolt to what would be an overly safe look for the label.

The Moschino Mc Donalds runway show, maybe it’s ok in little doses?

This campaign is sure to bring back a big dose of nostalgia for those who lived through the 90’s, and loved Moschino the first time around. Whilst Jeremy Scott’s kitsch collection is dubious at best, this campaign does pack some serious star-power and the collaboration between two of the biggest makers of fashion history won’t be overlooked easily.

Join us on a trip down memory lane as we revisit some of our favourite references for this campaign and other Linda/Meisel moments.

    The Scott collection is ugly, at least what I’ve seen. I wouldn’t wear it!

    I remember when she was one of the ‘fab four’. Wow look at her ’80s tan in the last photo!
