Tomas Maier has created Bottega Veneta's first cruise collection. Judging by the wide, varied collection, Maier really went for this autumn/spring ad campaign. They chose photographer Todd Eberle and model Colette Pechekhova for the campaign.

The photo shoot took place in a residential building in New York, which was designed by Jean Nouvel.

Maier wanted the photos to explore the subtlety of the architecture in harmony with the collection. The photos work fantastically with the lines and the colour - a balance between abstract ideas and a woman's individuality.

With his vast experience in creating editorials for Vanity Fair, Eberle wanted to emphasise the colours with a very graphic style of photography, playing on the shapes and the geometry of the accessories.
