Karl Lagerfeld Sells Dom Perignon

Karl Lagerfeld for Dom Perignon Oenotheque

Karl Lagerfeld shot a striking campaign for Dom Pérignon Oenothèque (back in 1993?).  Lagerfeld published the entire shoot in Visions and a Decision. The shoot (and accompanying book) features Claudia Schiffer, Brad Kroenig and Sebastien Jondeau and spins a grand take of old money seduction:

Telling the Wildean tale of an old money Dom Pérignon heir on the hunt for the perfect woman (played perfectly by American model Brad Koenig), Schiffer takes on the role of the book’s femme fatale, dressing up in numerous guises – ranging from Oriental temptress and libertine Ingenue to disco queen and dominatrix – all in the space of a few perfectly formed, achromatic pages.

Like a butterfly from a chrysalis, Schiffer’s various transformations have been throughout up by Lagerfeld as a manifestation of the Oenotheque’s unique aging concept. Like the best of Dom Pérignon’s wines, Schiffer morphs seamlessly from 18th century heroin to 21st century woman, retaining her own innate personality.
