RANKIN x TUULI

Working Relationship

RANKIN has photographed his model wife Tuuli as his latest muse for Lascivious underwear. The blonde beauty stars in the label's spring/summer 2011 campaign. SEE THE PHOTOS HERE "When Lascivious Lingerie approached me to do their latest shoot, I immediately said yes," Rankin tells us. "My wife, Tuuli, has modelled for them previously, and we both love the brand. The designs are truly original and fashion-forward. I was particularly impressed with one of the print designs that they did using an image of Tuuli inspired by the Rorschach ink test - absolutely beautiful. It's great to see a small business like this pushing boundaries and succeeding. I was honoured to collaborate with them." Founded in 2004, British brand Lascivious fuses an experimental design aesthetic with the desirability factor. A mix of graphic, bold prints and circus-themed tassels, the label's latest collection launches later this month both at Selfridges and online.
