Oh my God. The ads are HORRIBLE. I seriously thought they had potential, and then I saw all of these. Her mouth is so irritating I can't even describe it...and she looks so plastic and fake. It seems like someone shot every inch of her face with Botox. How could they ever think this is even slightly attractive? And what is the concept? Plastic?

this is starting to grow on me a lot. I like it, and looks way better in print. Thanks for the scans

Couldn't they've made her close her mouth at least in one shot

Agree that Sasha couldn't pull off this collection. I think someone like Daria or Magdalena could have pulled it off.

I can't decide if it's Linda I'm unhappy with, or the amount of retouching on her. She looks like a plastic botoxed doll, but not in a good way. It looks really really bad.

Totally agree. I hate Linda's pictures...

i think sasha would totally pull off this collection. she's absurdly versatile. and other models could pull it off as well, linda just isn't one of them...

As for those Linda ads in the mall...in the first picture she looks like she wants to eat my soul. Still, thanks for taking it Verene .

For alix's scan...I felt slightly, slightly warmer towards it. Which is why I'm still holding out until I see it in print for myself. But I sincerely doubt the women's ad will be as excellent as the men's. Petitjean made me want to buy a suit (and take off his after an erudite discussion on Alberto Moravia's oeuvre ).

I love the footwear shot. I actually really like the photography and the colors...basically everything except Linda...her nose freaks me out, and plus...she really is so not Prada.
