Pirelli’s 2015 calendar has been launched!
The 2015 Pirelli Calendar was presented to the press, guests and collectors from around the world at Pirelli HangarBicocca, the Pirelli contemporary art space in Milan.
The calender was created by Steven Meisel, one of the world’s most successful fashion photographers. Steven Meisel brought the absolute centrality of women back to the Pirelli Calendar in its most classic format. 12 months in 12 shots (plus the cover).
In his photographs, Meisel brings us some of the key aesthetic models of our time – advertising icons, stars of the silver screen, the explicit rebelliousness of fashion – once again demonstrating his great skill in transforming the subjects of his own images. The photographer was assisted in this work of transformation by the styling team led by Carine Roitfeld – the former editor of Vogue France and long at the forefront of the fashion system – and by Pat McGrath, one of the world’s most famous make-up artists.
This year’s Calendar year is titled Calendar Girls 2015, and the 12 girls in question are top and emerging models.
