Equestrian roots
Vehicle partnered with Ariat to launch a fashion line of women’s footwear that paid homage to the brand’s equestrian heritage. We designed and styled this series look books to reflect a new, higher-end positioning for this product line. Vehicle art directed the shoots, handled all production, including casting the talent, scouting the location, and hiring stylists. And we worked with esteemed fashion photographers Cristina Trayfors, David Peterson, and Alex Farnum for the series.
