Rankin Reveals ‘X’ Film for Coco de Mer

IN A FLASH: Rankin has teamed up with Walter Campbell, the director of “Under the Skin” starring Scarlet Johansson, on a film for Coco de Mer.

The new campaign of the London-based lingerie label, titled “X,” shows a roller-coaster ride of images, from seemingly banal everyday moments to erotic flashes.

Campbell created the concept and Rankin put together a flurry of directors and photographers, including himself, Vicky Lawton, David Allain, Damien Fry and Joe Hunt, Trisha Ward and Bronwen Parker-Rhodes.

“I commissioned them all like for a magazine, and said, ‘You have one or two days to shoot,’” the British photographer and editor in chief of Hunger magazine explained after a screening on Monday at the indie theater La Pagode in Paris.

“The film is pushing the boundaries of what films can do. It’s not about selling, it’s about you being part of an experience,” Rankin said. “You can consume imagery very quickly now.”

“The core of the campaign is Coco de Mer’s real commitment to creating a more vital, more beautiful erotic landscape through which our audience can explore,” said Lucy Litwack, managing director of Coco de Mer.

The content of this two-minute, 36-second clip contains flashing imagery. “Someone told me after seeing it: ‘It’s like watching my life flash before my eyes.’ I said: ‘You must have had a great life!’” Rankin said.

The clip reads: “They say you think about sex every six seconds. We can help you think about sex even more.”

The erotic component translates in different ways. “The reference would be Helmut Newton…that strong woman in control. There is such a large amount of sexual imagery. I want to make sure it was done in a way I was comfortable with,” said Lawton.

The film is set for screening in London on May 18, ahead of the release of the campaign online, in stores and potentially in theaters on May 19.

She might have been working on her 20th birthday.

But life isn’t too shabby for Victoria’s Secret stunner Kelly Gale who celebrated turning a year older in the idyllic Turks and Caicos, while on a shoot for the famed lingerie giant.

The Indian-Australian beauty wished herself happy birthday with an enviable bikini snap on Instagram, that revealed the efforts of her three-times a day workouts.

The stunning runway queen, who grew up in Sweden, is the picture of beach babe perfection in the selfie which shows off her limber form in a simple but sexy black two piece.

With her raven tresses wet from a swim, the exotic stunner beams at the camera flashing her gorgeous gap toothed smile, and revealing her flawless skin in the makeup-free close-up.

Bathed in sunlight, the underwear model captioned the shot: ‘YAY IT’S MY BIRTHDAY.. And i’m so lucky to be spending it on the most beautiful beach ever thanks to @victoriassecret.’

She works out three times a day and she has the killer body to show for it. So when Kelly Gale showed off her trim figure in a Victoria’s Secret bikini, we could clearly see the results of her hard work.

The VS Angel donned a turquoise two-piece in a halter neck style and cheeky bottoms. The decorative gold hardware on the straps added a little bit of pizzazz to the simple design.

Still in the very early stages of her career, Kelly seems more mature than her years, with her professional attitude to work reported by fashion titles like Vogue Australia, which says she has ‘work ethic, drive and professionalism of someone well beyond her 19 years.’

The Gothenburg-raised beauty, whose father is Australian told the magazine last year that she identifies with her Aussie roots, saying ‘I eat Vegemite on my toast and all of that.’

And the exotic beauty, who has been learning to surf during her trips over to Australia, certainly looks comfortable with beach life if her social media account is anything to go by.
