Petra Nemcova in Stuart Weitzman Film by James Franco

Stuart Weitzman's new short film Walking After Midnight packs a lot of cool. It stars supermodel Petra Nemcova, was directed by James Franco, and was styled by Anya Ziourova — one of the most talented fashion editors working today.

Ziourova told us that styling this video was "a piece of delicious cake," even if it was a minor challenge to create outfits that look good in a variety of settings. "You have to make sure that the clothes sit well from every angle, which isn't always the case in print," she said.

As for Franco, he mostly sat back and let Ziourova do her job. "James didn't get involved much," she said. "He trusted letting me create looks."

And from the way this video turned out, we'd say that was a good decision. Take a look at the episode from the film below and click through the gallery to see exclusive behind-the-scenes shots from the production. The first two vignettes are on Weitzman's Facebook page, and the fourth video will premiere online next Wednesday.
