BALENCIAGA’S latest campaign, photographed by Nadav Kander, sees a series of images featuring brand ambassadors Kim Kardashian, Isabelle Huppert and actress Naomi Watts all modelling the esteemed Rodeo Bag.
Balenciaga The Characters Campaign
The campaign is titled The Characters and depicts all three models portraying an aspect of their personality by producing a character study.
As they sit on a simple stool in front of a white background dressed in Balenciaga ready-to-wear with pieces including hybrid garments, kick silhouettes, evening dresses and Knife stilettos, their characters come to life.

Finalising each look, the Rodeo Bag is pictured, fabricated from calfskin and polished with a matte finish.
The Rodeo aesthetic is that of a favourite bag, used daily or passed down through generations. Its pre-loved, vintage design materialises through softened piping, raw edges and pre-worn accordion pleats.
