Digitalistic video: Girl Panic!

The Topmodels as Duran Duran © Stephanie Pistel for Harper's Bazaar

During the topmodel-era in the early nineties, artists made a habit of filling their music videos with Naomi’s, Cindy’s, Helena’s, Eva’s…etc. I guess George Michael was the record-holder – he managed to put them all together in a video (Freedom)- but iconic rock band Duran Duran were actually the first to use models in their clips (Simon LeBon even married one of them). Now they’re pulling the same trick two decades later with a 9 minutes short film in collaboration with Swarovski Elements. The video for ‘Girl Panic’, directed by Jonas Akerlund features the 5 topmodels who made a body switch with the band’s members (except for Yasmin LeBon, she’s an anonymous guitarplayer). Watch and enjoy after the jump! >>>>
