Speaking about this campaign, Angela Missoni told “Vogue” Itala that “we were inspired by ‘St.Pepper Lovely Hearts Club Band’, by that record cover conceived by the great British pop artist Peter Blake. A work that, in my opinion, perfectly summarizes the spirit of our collection, its playful shapes, ‘cut out’ and silhouetted against space. I have therefore asked the great artist to realize a big collage of portraits for our campaign. And, to my great joy, he accepted.”

Rumors about the actress’ collaboration with the famous brand started in the moment when Meester was spotted wearing Missoni regularly. The spring/summer 2020 campaign was shot by Juergen Teller and in one of the photos Leighton appears on a rocking-horse having a playful attitude and smiling. Moreover, a video directed by Mel Bles was released in which the family and friends are the main characters.
