The Theyskens' Theory Spring 2013 campaign boasts an all-star Belgium cast including Olivier Theyskens, of course, photographer Willy Vanderperre, stylist Olivier Rizzo, and campaign star, a photograph of the seashore in Knokke Le Zoutte, Belgium. Just jokes. Sort of. The real star of the campaign is model Wylie Hays in a florescent lit hallway, but the somber sea kind of steals the show. The juxtaposition of the two marries two concepts in the collection: wide-open waters and the expert tailoring Theyskens' is known for.
