Supercar Corvette Z06 Fashion Shoot with Musical Theatre Superstar Poppy
Musical theatre star Poppy brings sustainable couture to life with the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 supercar in Surrey.
Corvette Z06 Fashion Shoot
What happens when you place one of the most glamorous rising stars of musical theatre, a sustainable fashion brief, and one of the most outrageous V8 engines ever built on the same set?
You get the surreal but rather fabulous collision of Broadway sparkle, high fashion, and 670 horses of American muscle.
The stage was a magnificent Surrey country house, all manicured lawns and Georgian elegance—the sort of backdrop where one expects afternoon tea, not a Corvette Z06 snorting impatiently like a prize stallion at the croquet lawn. This is a supercar with a sense of theatre: 0–60 mph in a blink-and-you’ll-spill-your-champagne 2.6 seconds.
Enter Poppy, musical theatre star and model, who effortlessly commanded the camera in gowns and streetwear from Louis Vuitton, Guess, Gucci, and Christian Louboutin. The juxtaposition was delicious: sustainable fashion styling by Emily Wills, shimmering couture offset by the Corvette’s muscular lines, and Poppy’s radiant presence bridging the two worlds.
The supporting cast was equally vital: Daisy du Palais’s makeup artistry gave Poppy the timeless glow of a 1970s screen siren, while Victoria Tite sculpted her hair into waves that looked ready to withstand both flashbulbs and 200 mph slipstreams. The brands in play were a who’s who of aspirational fashion: from Tiffany & Co. sparkle to Pretty Little Thing sass, and from Ray-Ban’s iconic cool to Club L London’s drama.
Behind the lens was Yves de Contades (Excellence Group), capturing the alchemy of speed, style, and star power. The result? A visual narrative that doesn’t just flirt with glamour but takes it for a joyride—sustainably styled, unapologetically loud, and perfectly staged.
Because let’s face it—if sustainable fashion needs a poster girl, she might as well arrive in 2.6 seconds flat, V8 soundtrack included.
