The campaign sees a focus on the futuristic and other-wordly elements of Plein’s blockbuster shows, and brings to life a dystopian world, complete with robot arms and sci-fi heroines.

“The sense of freedom is an extremely strong feeling in the desert,” explains Ermanno Scervino. “The absence of obstacles as far as the eye can see is intoxicating. Elisa, dressed in white lace is a dream, a stimulus to look towards the future, towards new horizons”

Versace have turned the seasons on their heads with a summer campaign set on the ski slopes, with Raquel Zimmerman and Natasha Poely sunning themselves in bikinis, while Gigi Hadid rocks breezy, bold animal prints.

Burberry introduces us to a host of new faces with their sultry SS16 campaign, featuring Dylan Brosnan (yes - he's Pierce's son), runway sensation sisters Ruth and May Bell and indie girl Misha Hart.

Ms Hadid is obviously set to be the face of the season - as well as racking up more catwalk struts than we can count during the SS16 shows, she's in almost every campaign going. She stars in Stuart Weitzman's cheeky clothes-off, heels only campaign alongside Joan Smalls and Lily Aldridge.

An honourable mention goes to Phlipp Plein who managed to cram four mega-models of the moment into his grungy, post-apocalyptic campaign: Ajak Deng, Hailey Baldwin, and Pyper America and Lucky Blue Smith.

We're also pretty obsessed with Ermanno Scervino's campaign, which features Elisa Sednaoui and American martial arts champion, Alan Jouban in the wilds of the California desert.
