Michael Kors Fall 2025 Ad Campaign

Review of Michael Kors Fall 2025 Ad Campaign by Photographers Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin with model Angelina Kendall

For Fall 2025, Michael Kors trades Riviera runways and poolside reveries for something more introspective—and infinitely more interesting. Shot by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin at New York’s Terminal Warehouse, this season’s campaign forgoes the jet set and sets its sights firmly on the silhouette. Model Angelina Kendall commands the lens with cool precision and a cascade of hair that could make a wind tunnel blush, while stylist Carlos Nazario’s rich tailoring lets the textures do the talking. It’s less about where she’s going and more about what she’s wearing—and it’s about time.

This collection marks a tonal shift for Kors, and a welcome one. Yes, the staples are still glamorous—sculpted coats, glossy trench dresses, languid silks—but they arrive free from the usual passport stamp aesthetic. There’s no yacht, no private jet, no tarmac strut. Instead, the drama comes from within: in the cut of a wide lapel, the flicker of pleated movement, and the slow-burn tension between softness and structure. The images, in black and white and moody sepia, lean cinematic without feeling posed. There’s a tactile sensuality here—shearling, croc-embossed leather, featherweight wool—all rendered in a palette that’s equal parts strength and serenity: espresso, charcoal, caramel, and the faintest iris.

Michael Kors himself puts it best: “everyday opulence.” It’s a phrase that once might’ve suggested oversized sunglasses at an airport lounge. Here, it feels like a whispered manifesto—about clothes meant to endure, empower, and actually be worn. Even the accessories tell that story. The bags are bold yet grounded, the shearling hats unapologetically plush, the gloves whispering “Bond girl off-duty.”

Best of all, the environment finally supports rather than overshadows. Terminal Warehouse becomes less of a location and more of a mood—brick and shadow acting as a frame, not the main event. It’s Angelina and that hair (seriously, Orlando Pita deserves a raise) that carry the story forward, stride by stride.

In the end, this campaign doesn’t just present a look—it delivers a point of view. Kors proves that you don’t need to fly across the globe to make a statement. Sometimes, all it takes is one strong coat, one strong stance, and a fan blowing in the right direction.
