The Best Fashion Campaigns for Spring 2020

Now that we've entered the start of a new year, the Spring 2020 campaigns are beginning to trickle in from all over. First shown on the runway last September, many of the clothes in these campaigns will begin to hit stores this season. Meanwhile, the ads are fronted by everyone from famous faces and brand ambassadors to up-and-coming models alike. From Patou's first campaign under its new creative director to the resplendent actor Jodie Comer posing for Loewe, here are the best campaigns for Spring 2020 so far.

Club Monaco channels dreamy, desert life in a pared back shoot for their SS20 campaign styled by new creative director Richard Chai. Shot by Samual Bradley at Arcosanti in Arizona, the campaign features suits and flowing gowns in hues of copper, rust, and earthly linen, as well as striped loungewear. Paired with the beautiful architecture and landscape of Arcosanti, the collection is a nod to the brand's appreciation for simple pleasures.

Gap is changing the conversation around khaki with its Spring 2020 campaign, titled "Relearn the Khaki." Unlike the familiar beige/tan slacks and cargos you might associate the style with, Gap is rendering them in a multitude of colors, fabrics and silhouettes this season for an utterly modern feel. From drawstring waists to wide-legged versions in pastels, the campaign captures the full range of the brand's new khaki offerings.

Marine Serre teamed up with creative studio Actual Objects for her SS20 campaign that takes form in a 4-part video series blending CGI and AR graphics titled "Marée Noire," which translates to "Oil Spill." The frames depict four post-Apocalyptic communities (EDEN, THE DROUGHT, BEACH and PASS) with the concept of pipelines running throughout, themes of which she explored in her most recent show in Paris.

At Longchamp's Spring 2020 show in New York last year, Kendall Jenner sat out the runway and instead opted to take in the show from her front row seat. However, she is front and center for the brand's fashion campaign, where she sports a variety of leather looks and airy pastels from the collection, which was inspired by the solar journey from dawn to dusk. (The images were taken outdoors in the Californian desert in the beginning, middle, and end of day.) In addition, Jenner sports Longchamp's popular Roseau bags, which ia rendered in a new miniature size this season.
