Malibu, Calif.-based photographer Kenneth Cappello shot Sweeney in the campaign with beachy elements that take inspiration from the original 1993 Miami photoshoot by Wayne Maser. The new men’s and women’s collection features 32 pieces of apparel and accessories done in a mix of red, black, white and teal as the key hues.

“Anna Nicole Smith is essential to ‘90s fashion. Anna’s legendary beach shoot revived for this collection and the campaign with Sydney Sweeney is the perfect timeless moment to continue to celebrate one of the most iconic Guess Girls with a new generation,” mentioned Nicolai Marciano, director of brand partnerships.
