Mercedes SL wrapped in blue latex for Obsession with an Icon fashion campaign

For the Obsession with an Icon fashion campaign, the art of cars and the art of fashion are rolled into one… literally: Mercedes has commissioned a designer to wrap its facelifted SL in body-hugging latex.

Draped to show off SL body lines

The car is draped in peacock blue latex to show off the new-look SL’s body lines and all its design details – for example, just look at those side indents with 2 side bars on its flanks, and the shapely new toned new grille and headlights.

Giving it 1 colour which seems to be have been poured over the car and onto the floor, envelops the big Mercedes SL roadster in a super tight-fitting second skin, with none of the usual contrast of colours.  It simply removes the normal appearance of the car in its standard paint and colour (of paint and trim and fittings) to let one appreciate the car’s beautiful lines.

The Mercedes SL is certainly an icon in the automotive world, and loved by so many people across the world.  Some have an obsession with the SL, whether it is this new car, or with any of its illustrious desirable predecessors.  Clothing this model in a sensuous, curvaceous, shiny blue outfit merely turns up its desirability.
