Nicolas Ghesquière, French fashion designer and the creative director of the famous Louis Vuitton, unveiled a new series of ads, entitled Series 4, which features the stunning Lightning from Final Fantasy XIII modeling real life clothes and accessories created by Louis Vuitton.
This promotion is a collaboration with Tetsuya Nomura and Square Enix’s Visual Works CG Department.
We’ve seen Lightning, as well as other characters of the fabled Final Fantasy XIII series, model fashion before for Prada in a male fashion magazine, Arena Homme+ in Prada’s 2012 Spring/Summer men’s collection.
Max Pearmain, Editor of Arena Homme+, commented on the collaboration,
“I’ve always been interested by the power of video games and their place in society, and the amount of work that’s gone into this project blows my mind. We’re incredibly pleased with the result.”
As the video game community grows, we can only expect to see more of these characters come alive as fashionistas.
