MANGO have launched their fall/winter 2015 line with an ad featuring Kate Moss and Cara Delevingne. The soundtrack is Chromatics covering Cyndi Lauper‘s “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun”. Watch it below.
Update: Echo Park Records have tweeted that the full song will be released later this month when the ad airs on television. They also reveal that a new single is coming next week (and that Johnny Jewel has started an Italians Do It Better Instagram account!)
