Alexa Demie Strikes A Pose in Thigh-High Boots for Balenciaga’s Winter 2022 Campaign
Balenciaga has officially launched its Winter 2022 campaign, and returned to Instagram yet again in the process — with a little help from Alexa Demie. The “Euphoria” actress stars in the new campaign, shot by Daniel Roché, where models in head-to-toe Balenciaga outfits pose in unlikely destinations like deserts, forests and public pools.
In Demie’s first shot by Roché, she adjusts one of her large metallic post earrings in a dark brown coat. The oversized piece includes a furry texture and wide sleeves, layered over a black turtleneck sweater — echoing the ’80s “power” ensembles worn by businesswomen of the era. Cinched with a wrinkled belt, Demie’s ensemble is complete with a set of tall black boots with stretchy uppers, pointed toes and stiletto heels for a slick finish — as well as the label’s rounded Cagole shoulder bag, covered in sparkling crystals.
However, this wasn’t Demie’s only Balenciaga moment for the label’s Winter 2022 campaign. In a second shot, framed to appear in a snowy Chinatown street in downtown New York City, she poses in a set of the same boots in white, layered beneath a matching minidress with glove-shaped sleeves.
Finishing the piece is an overlaid print of a lacy black slip dress, giving the illusion of the slip floating in midair against the winter backdrop. Her ensemble is finished with a large black leather flap handbag with reptilian embossments, punctuated by gold chain handles and a “B”-shaped clasp.
Similar heeled boots in black and floral-printed iterations were also worn in the Winter campaign by Kim Kardashian.
Both of Demie’s campaign cameos follow the actress’ appearance at Balenciaga’s Fall 2022 couture show, which took place in Paris this July. The event featured an array of celebrities on the catwalk, including Kardashian, Dua Lipa, Nicole Kidman and Christine Quinn — creating one of the year’s most viral fashion moments.
