Alexander Wang on a Party Bus (?!)

Whilst I'm most typically drawn to the minimal style of nearly all form, Alexander Wang's Spring campaign has surprised. He's taken Wang to the party and it happens to be on a bus filled with neon lights of all colours.

Although fashion photography is known for shooting from a low angle to lengthen the legs, how often is a fashion campaign shot from this extreme low angle? It's exciting and new, which is something that's needed. I haven't felt excited about a campaign for a while (other than Celine SS15) but Wang has done it. Shot by Steven Klein who is known for dramatic and dynamic photos, it's typically his style but is indeed a new style for Wang who's previous campaigns have used minimal colour. However, Wang's SS15 campaign has seen an injection of new colour and I therefore think this campaign is exciting and a good change for Wang.
