Having just finished re-watching Twin Peaks on Netflix, this new H&M work featuring Lana Del Ray singing Blue Velvet is apropos. Directed by Johan Renck, Del Rey’s version of the 1950’s classic is as mysterious as any David Lynch project you could imagine.
Of the work, H&M Creative Director Donald Schneider said, “We are excited to have Lana Del Rey, the new star and style icon, as the face of our fall campaign. Lana is totally unique, and we wanted to create a print and film campaign that’s just as special. The mood is very L.A. noir and is inspired by our Fall collection, which also fits with Lana’s own personal style.”
It’s not your average commercial work. And it’s a wonderful departure from your usual, run-of-the-mill retail commercial work.
