Chanel Paris-London 2008 : Coco Rocha and Brad Kroenig by Karl Lagerfeld

[Diorette]

Gorgeous!

Is it a lookbook or a campaign??

[Miss Dalloway]

If that is campaign,i dont like it at all,so lackluster.

[Lucy_Birkin]

I think it is not a campaign...just a lookbook....there´s got to be something more interesting for a campaign. But Coco and Brad look great!

[meowmix]

coco looks amazing. i love this. brad, however, looks awful... awful menswear and the angle at which they shot him makes him look like some sort of prehuman

I think this is definately inspired by Amy, esp. as it's London inspired or what have you. Karl is incredibly influenced by pop culture (which he openly admits) and i think he always has a soft spot for the 'wild child' sort of character (ie Lindsay, Lily Allen, etc. etc.). I think it really fits with the mood of the clothes though. It looks great

[Moofins]

Great casting, and great styling. =D

I think Karl just really likes the beauty of decadence (as in "The Beautiful Fall"). He works for Chanel, the most famous house of the roaring '20's, he collects millions of dollars of extravagant 18th century furniture...etc, etc. I guess today's celebrities are just an extension of that.

On another note, these are some of the best pictures I've ever seen of Coco. She looks so much prettier when she shuts that perpetually ajar mouth of hers.

[dandylions]

she looks great! doesnt seem like karls style though as compared the usual ads but still, gorgeous!

[Spike413]

This is the best campaign he's done in recent memory. It's clean, it's graphic and it's all about the details. I love the focus on the jewelry, it's so decadent looking. Keeping that in mind I can look past the Amy Winehouse-esque hair (I like the eyliner, so that can stay.)

The most surprising thing though is how much Coco has grown on me, something I never would've predicted. When you're not distracted by her perpetually ajar mouth (brilliant btw, ilaughead ) her eyes are very striking.

As for Brad, meowmix said it best.

yes I agree - having a 'gift' whether it be for acting or singing and being offered so much on a platter and partaking of all that and then falling from grace so to speak.

[unipine]

the clothes and jewellery are enough to make these shots amazing. just a black background and they're good to go. i love that.

[kissmesweet]

Coco looks fantastic!

Brad? Oh my, that's a surprise!

[seahorseinstripe]

oh my they're lovely!! coco is amazing...
i kinda imagine the idea of having coco rocha and chanel iman together for the coco chanel campaign, wouldn't they be a cute thing LOL
