Bally has again tapped Christy Turlington and Oriol Elcacho to star in its new fall/winter ad campaign. And we've got a sneak peek.

The architecturally driven campaign was shot by legendary photographer Mario Sorrenti, while Bally creative director Brian Atwood headed the ad campaign. (You may remember that Sorrenti also shot Scarlett Johansson's MANGO campaign.)

This is the second season Turlington and Elcacho have modeled for Bally -- Atwood chose them to portray a Miami Beach couple for his first ad campaign (spring/summer 08) with the fashion house.

Atwood explained Bally's choice of Turlington and Elcacho: "For me Christy is simply the perfect Bally woman; graceful, intelligent, and natural; she exudes a sophisticated ease; her sensual beauty is perfectly complimented by Oriol's strong and confident presence."

The full campaign will launch in August.

The headline on AOL is incorrect for this story. Christy Turlington is 40 yrs old...she was born 1/2/69. But she is very beautiful as she is always.

I have watched and adored her for years....
And yes, she is older, 40 years to be precise.

Nevertheless, a true classic & timeless beauty - indeed a fabulous choice..
