Kate Hudson's summer campaign for Ann Taylor has been released. 
The maybe newlywed modeled in the womenswear label’s summer range in an estate in Pasadena, California.

This is the actress's second campaign run for the company.
Several behind-the-scenes images show the bubbly star’s mega-watt smile beaming out from behind the fussing hands of hair and make-up staff as well as Munro’s lens.

 
     Hudson said in a press release about the new campaign: ‘I loved working with Ann Taylor. The summer campaign looks beautiful, sunny and chic.’

    Judging by this and last season’s campaigns, it seems the company is continuing to target a younger demographic,
    in comparison to  Moore's previous campaigns, which gave off a more mature and moody feel.

    Ann Taylor has struggled to bring in consistent sales figures recently. According to WWD, it was considered the poorest player within the Ann Inc group in 2011.

    Loft, another label under the company umbrella, caters for the younger market, and finished last year with more positive figures.

    A new formatted Ann Taylor store system, featuring improved layouts and lighting, will take effect in 2012 with 25 existing stores booked for renovations.
