I actually think she looks more like Anne Hathaway than Lindsay Lohan. The full lips and so on.

Photo Instyle

Not a bad photo at all, I like the colour and the mood, but what's the point of using a celeb if it doesn't even resemble the actual person?

Yes its nice....but it dosent look like lindsay at all. Its like they just used her initial bone structure and then photoshopped everything else about her away. and she has a different hair colour too.

but whatever, it still looks like miu miu taste. but i wouldnt have thought Lindsay would exactly be some sort of muse to miucca prada, right?

If she is??/ ahhhhh! what is happening to the world??? lol.

I really don't understand all these "its not Lindsay, its karen, its suvi, its anne ()". It obviously IS Lindsay Lohan.

I think people just cannot accept she can look good and stylish etc. etc...its like denial LOL

Also I honestly don't think its THAT photoshopped . It's just people are trying to attack her because shes Lindsay Lohan. Its unfair. Models are photoshopped to the MAX in ad campaigns *cough* Sasha for Prada *cough*. It's a part of the fashion world, images are photoshopped to the point of perfection - afterall, they're trying to sell a BRAND, a COMPANY an IMAGE of perfection.

I'm not a Lindsay fan, but I think that if someone likes the concept of the Miu Miu ads, they should not try to justify their amazement by attacking the degree to which Ms. Lohan is photoshopped

The concept meant it would be photoshopped anyway , but her face is the only thing that is brought to the ad and whatever "personality" she could have brought it's...well not really there but I'm guessing that is again the concept. Just seems a bit of an odd choice but to me , but I don't hate it.

This is so much better than I thought it was going to be. That said, it would have been even greater if they had used a proper model instead of Lindsay.

I'm pleased though, I don't know what I was expecting, maybe some sort of horrible disaster but it hasn't materialised.

I forgot to mention it but I really miss Inez & Vinoodh for Miu Miu. The fw0607 ads and the ss06 ads were so much better..This is just boring. I hope the other ones will be more exciting but generally I'm not a fan of Mert & Marcus

yeah the photoshoped effect comes from the style of their photography..i don't like it for miu miu
if the ads were more 'real' looking and we could actually see what lindsay looks like i would like them..
anyway i just hate how this ad looks..

i like it, and i think lindsay looks great (the fact that the image is photoshopped it a given, hello!)...i don't disagree with miuccia's choice: lindsay is pretty, quite stylish, has attitude and is addicted to fashion. it's isn't that illogical to use her in a campaign. the problem are her antics...lindsay should just cut back on her excess of everyhting, cuz that's what's making her act ridiculously and it's detrimental to her potential. anyway, just my two cents

i so wish that a model would have been c hosen for the ads.. but maybe this is miuccia's way of trying to bring miu miu into more of the mainstream? where i live at least, teenage girls aren't really wearing miu miu and a lot of them don't even know what it is.. but putting lindsay lohan as the face of the brand could cause a lot of girls who "look up" to her to be more interested..

I agree. Mert and Marcus have little taste and even less restraint. This glamour overdose is so boring to me and so not what Miu Miu should be about. Inez and Vinoodh captured the perfect Miu aesthetic.

the aesthetic is a little bit surprising, i agree. you're gona turn the pages and "miu miu" is gona pass right by you because you won't notice the picture as the brand...does that make sense?

also how can we find out when this picture was taken because that is a wig, no? i wish they'd use her real hair
