“Gaze on, Black swan” is Raven by Rogue’s 2019 fashion ad campaign theme

 

After a successful debut of its women’s wear brand ‘Raven by Rogue’ last year, the designer is back with an exceptional new ad campaign and it’s all about light airy fabrics and sleek evening dresses  that are simply  chic, sexy and alluring.

For this project, the brand teamed up with South African model and artiste, Abby Zeus who brought the naturalness, freedom and femininity to the campaign.

While very modern, the designer still turned up the volume when it came to the evening wear; looking to sequins galore, and also freeing the nipple with sheer appeal and flattering fabrics for sexy curve hugging shapes. The pieces are certainly show stopping numbers.

From rich tinseled gowns to strapless dresses, this collection is for the woman who wants to stand out.

Pieces from LA CONQUERANT also play with black and white shades which were infused in a way of drapes, tulle, swarovski stones, ruffles, lace and petals and they all reflect how this confident woman can transform her looks from work chic to an elegant lady for a night out.
