pozos, mexico,valentino 2011

“Pozos is this little abandoned mining town that had all these ruins in the landscape, and it’s free from tourists. So [for the Valentino Spring campaign shoot], they came, this entourage of 14—the two designers and all the people from the advertising agency. It was a huge sitting with all these people being put up and limousines and vans. We had to cater the food out in the middle of nowhere and have presses and steam irons, everything, and all the equipment…It was a very big deal. Like an old-fashioned sitting from the past.”
