    The most mesmerizing campaign shoot you will ever see

    Tom Hiddleston is many things to many people. Actor mostly, and potential new Bond, but Gucci saw something in Tom that many of us missed… Tom Hiddleston: Afghan Hound breed ambassador.

    Tom stars* in Gucci’s new Cruise 2017 Men’s Tailoring campaign, in a series of grandiose portraits shot by Glen Luchford, set in the historic LA mansion owned by the late artist, set designer and ‘more is more’ aficionado, Tony Duquette.

    *(Plays second fiddle to his Afghan Hound friends.)

    The images show Tom Hiddleston looking luxurious in the new Gucci ready-to-wear collection, reclining on a green sofa, being whimsy on a brocade-lined bed and standing upright, gazing longingly into the distance.

    We feel it necessary to describe Tom is situ, as the otherworldly hounds that appear with the actor are doing a bloody good job at making it all about them.

    Here they are, silky and resplendent, in all their full-bodied glory. Bathe in their radiance, breathe it in and wish that you were Tom Hiddleston right now…

    Holly Rains is the digital editor of Marie Claire UK. She has over 10 years journalism experience, working as an editor and writer, specialising in digital media, content strategy and dog breeds. Prior to Marie Claire, she has held senior staff positions at ELLE UK, Grazia and Company magazine.

    Holly is a frequent speaker, panelist and interviewer on a range of subjects including media trends, careers and entertainment. From working with Reuters to provide global red carpet coverage for events like the BAFTAs, to discussing fashion and beauty trends on network TV, she was also the host of the Marie Claire series ‘Holly’s First Dates’, where she regularly interviewed a mix of inspiring woman and A-list celebrities (including Jack Black, Dakota Fanning and Renée Zellweger)  - a series which garnered half a million views in its first two months. And was approved by The Rock.

    Her love of office-based meetings means that the days of discovering the melting point of Cadbury's Flakes are long gone, but when she isn't dreaming of scheduling in meetings, she likes to think about social media, and how best to avoid it whilst still retaining the title of 'digital' editor. She also likes learning about emerging technology, Influencers and how to become a Financially Responsible Adult.
