^ I agree, the bags are horrible.. but I like the pose, and Rihanna's body. imo Gucci would of had to uses someone like Rihanna, for the UNICEF campaign. Just for it to get noticed by people. If they used say.. Lily Donaldson or Natasha Poly and the campaign was on the side of a building people would not notice it as much, however with Rihanna its the opposite. Thats what advertiseing is all about

It's so much about being ugly as much as it's about not being right for Gucci. When I see it I think Ed Hardy or something less tasteful even.

I really agree with elle_gb too. Is her tattoo on her mid-section in arabic btw?

Yes, I know it's an ugly campaign and Rihanna does not fit for Gucci. But it is a campaign for UNICEF and well they will get more attention for having Rihanna than a model people will not be able to ID or personally relate to (unless you're well us haha.)

But the Ad itself is ugly.

Hopefully, Gucci is just using Rihanna to appeal to wider audience because it's for UNICEF

Oh, I think Rihanna looks fine (if over-photoshopped, who isn't these days) it's the bag that's scaring the bejeesus out of me. Not even LV has produced something so low-rent. (Although there was that year they made those "It" bags that, where I come from, farmers use to transport their produce to sell at the market. Those were LV, right?)
