After returning to the runway for Jeremy Scott’s show (having made only a handful of fashion appearances in the past decade), Devon Aoki is back again, this time starring in the designer’s fall/winter 16 campaign. Shot and creative directed by Jeremy himself, the images feature a studded leather jacket and matching mini skirt, as well as a neon pink and black patterned trench coat from his most recent collection.
Aoki and Scott have a close and long-lasting friendship, first meeting when the iconic model made her catwalk debut at his show when she was just 13-years-old. “In life there are few people who are your true, true friends, who will be there when you’re in a hospital bed and really, really have your best interests at heart,” Aoki told i-D when we caught up with her at the Moschino Resort 17 show in LA. “And Jeremy’s one of those people. Not just with me, but with so many of these girls. He’s got a lot of heart. He’s amazing. And he’s the coolest guy ever.”
