NEW YORK, March 12, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ellen Tracy, the women’s lifestyle brand, today unveiled its newest campaign starring top model and social media influencer Irina Shayk. The campaign marks the launch of a long-term partnership between Ellen Tracy and design partner Global Brands Group that will see Shayk serve as the face of Ellen Tracy and introduce a series of capsule collections she has co-designed with the brand.
Photographer and director Mario Sorrenti shot the Ellen Tracy Spring/Summer 2018 campaign in New York City, with styling provided by renowned stylist Alex White. The Spring campaign highlights the collection’s workwear for the modern woman, and is available at leading retailers including Dillard’s and Lord & Taylor.
“I am excited to have partnered with Ellen Tracy. The brand has a long and respected history within the fashion industry and I am pleased to be following in the footsteps of icons such as Cindy, Christy and Stephanie, to name a few,” said Shayk. “Working with Mario Sorrenti on this campaign was amazing—the photography perfectly captures the approachable elegance of the new collection.”
Jameel Spencer, Fashion Division President at Sequential Brands Group, which owns the Ellen Tracy brand, stated, “As soon as we saw Irina, we knew she embodied the new Ellen Tracy woman—feminine and strong, confidently juggling the many areas of her life. We are very much looking forward to the capsule collection we have in the works with Irina, which we will be launching in the fall.”
