Behati Prinsloo and Adam Levine have been tapped to star in fine jewelry designer Jacquie Aiche’s latest campaign. Inspired by the allure, electricity, and sensuality of romance, the new shots find the couple draped in an array of bohemian necklaces, rings, earrings, and more from Aiche’s new “Rebel Heart” collection. For a signature Aiche twist, each piece is accented by charms and pendants shaped like locks, keys, crosses, feathers, and aliens—all crafted with gleaming pavé diamonds, emeralds, pink tourmaline, onyx, and more precious materials.
“I hadn’t done a shoot for Jacquie in a while, and we had been talking about it for so long,” Prinsloo said. “I was excited once it came together because I feel like I’m in a different place in my life now. This time around, it felt so special with Adam and I collaborating together. It was all so natural; I knew Jacquie was going to make this a really special shoot.”
