Marc Jacobs, through the lens by Juergen Teller

You probably remember these low-fi style ads for Marc Jacobs, featuring many of movie, fashion or music 'icons'. Signed by Juergen Teller they have been collected and put together first time in a book, and published by Steidl.

As Wallpaper puts is: Starting out with a shoot featuring Sofia Coppola in a snowy Central Park - the Juergen Teller meets Marc Jacobs story, is one of pure fashion perfection. Teaming up in the late 1990s, Teller has gone on to produce campaigns for every facet of the Jacobs empire over the past decade - helping to affirm Marc Jacobs as one of the leading creative figures in fashion.

With the ads featuring the likes of Charlotte Rampling, Cindy Sherman, William Eggleston and even an angular Victoria Beckham crawling out of a Marc Jacobs carrier – friends, family and followers of the pair were all conscripted to get involved.

Merging celebrity, reportage, fashion and art in a heady aesthetic mix, the combination of Tellers’s intimate, low-fi style with his contrastingly hi-brow subjects is undoubtedly the key to the success of the campaigns.
