Hermes F/W 08.09 : Mariacarla Boscono by Eric Valy

Personally I think this ad is fabulous. It proves that there is nothing an intrepid supermodel on the go can't conquer! Cocktails? No problem! Photoshoots? Piece of cake! Traipsing up a snowy mountain in the dead of winter? Easy-peasy-lemon squeezy!

Hermes F/W 08

I like it, it's not as fun and pretty as last season's ads with the elephants, but it's nice to see something different for a luxury house.

This is really fabulous. You can almost feel the setting and mood pop out of the image.

And MCB does it again! Wow, she is simply amazing, can't imagine anyone else in this ad but HER. Ah, fantastic, simply fantastic.

I like this but seriously who are they trying to appeal to with this campaign?

I didn't know the Hermes customer treks up the Himalaya's with their Birkins and Crocodile Boots!

I love this ad because it feels like there is more than just posing going on...there is something raw to it and I love it.

well this is just an ad, not a what-to-wear-in-the-mountains guide...alberta ferretti's customers not necessarily wear alberta ferretti on the subway, and guys don't necessarily wear marc by marc jacobs womenswear... for me it totally sells, i hope there are more, i'm so in love with it

Wonderful!! Hermes ads almost never disappoint.
This ad is perfect, suits the travel far-away appeal Hermes incarnates. I can't wait to see it in mags!
