I was thinking the exact same thing...Carolina Pantoliano...they've made Jennifer look so much like her, especially in the eyes and eyebrows.

nice collection but the campaign is a little boring...

Hmm. The Vogue UK editorial does look a lot better than this, but I like what they did with the loud background color in the second picture. And I'm not put off by the weird leg placement very much. It kind of lends to the alien feel of the clothes, how they sculpt a completely new body for the wearer.

I like these, I like the awkward appeal.
It's pretty decent, especially for a celeb in a fashion campaign.

boring to Balenciaga loveed Jennider but this no are good to summer campaing

So the rumors were true.

I honestly love her as an actress, because she`s unbelievably talented but I think in the role of spokesperson pour Balenciaga she`s completely miscast.

It doesn`t capture the essence of the collection, does it? I mean not that there was much of an essence but it looked more artistic on the runway and unbelievably commercial and almost cheap on the pics!

If it had to be an actress in this campaign, I'd like to have seen Cate Blanchett. She wears Balenciaga well.

wyatt. · 06-01-2008

clemence posey wears balenciaga best! not to mention her alter ego fleur goes perfectly with the collection

notmanons · 06-01-2008

I certainly thought it was Caroline Pantoliano.

ysljunkie · 06-01-2008

yawn! Even though she still has "street cred" and I like the second pic. I hope celebs as model dont become a constant for balenciaga

I like Jennifer, but this campaign is horrible. Horrible pose, and even more horrible expression, I think that has something to do with the hair style.
Also the blue background is a really bad choice, the grey one looks a bit better.
And yes, I don't know how but they've managed to make her look like Pantoliano.

the pose is just sick!

Daria should have got the campaign...

everyone is entitled to their own opinion, by all means. however by choosing jennifer, nicolas obviously felt that jennifer best suited the collection, not cate blanchett, or a model. and while i love carolina p, jennifer mastered the light eyes-dark hair-strong brow look long before carolina started modeling.

i wish it had turned out more like this! [:
