Sies Marjan reveals for the Fall-Winter 2017 collection, a campaign lensed by Bruce Weber, in the Hamptons. A narrative set during the last days of summer, where girls and boys, friends and lovers, models and not, appeared dressed in Sies Marjan as they pass through a hazy summer day. A celebration of individuality with love in the air, features by  Isabella Rossellini with son Roberto Rossellini, Sasha Pivovarova and daughter Mia, and Lexi Boling with boyfriend Ben Allen.

“I am less keen on fashion that is all fantasy, or all reality; what really interests me is the play between them. Most of us use fashion to bring some fantasy to our everyday realities, and even to bring some of our fantasies to life. For me, this is a big part of the power and pleasure of clothes.

I want to celebrate the Sies Marjan ethos, and I want my clothes to do the same thing. I love to collaborate with people who understand this, and because I trust their outlook, we can stand back and watch our worlds combine.
This is the approach that has led to the most successful projects, including this campaign with Bruce. His way of seeing things and showing people, and is at once both earthly and divine. He makes people look like legends; he shows the humanity in the legendary.”     –Sander Lak
