Right? Sasha is a bore-fest to me so...blah.

Shame Meghan isn't here...I've started liking her recently. Wonder what happened?

it looks directly from the runway. awful make up, awful clothes, predictable model and poses. these could be eyewear ads.

How in the world we went from Sasha stealing the spotlight against a backdrop of Irina and Anabela, and then again with Irina, Meghan and Angelika...all the way to Sasha just posing with herself, is beyond me. Meghan should have been in these.

Other than my gripes with the casting, these are really lovely. The colors are great, and the background is really unique against the more bold and surreal images in the foreground. Thanks for scanning these OhJane!

So is it pretty much confirmed know that Meghan will not be featured in this campaign?

[seanutbutter]

^ It's almost like they just Photoshopped Sasha's head over Meghan's in the second advertisement. It's like a double insult - not only were you rejected from the campaign, but you were edited out of it.

I'm only kidding, of course!

i didn't like the collection at first, but it has grown on me and i really like these ads. i loved the runway backdrop so i'm happy to see it repeated here.

I'm torn. On the one hand, they suit the collection perfectly, the runway background was certainly beautiful enough to feature in photos and the colors of the clothes look extremely rich...but I feel like there should be more.

I was kind of hoping for some strange fantasy world filled with punky feminist pixies.

sasha must have married a prada she's the prada girl for so many seasons already, but i aint complaining!

[min-SH]

(only) 2 things caught my eyes: the watches, and Sasha's face.

I think these ads are beautiful but the clothes are seriously FUG.. this is one Prada collection that i don't think will ever grow on me.. even the muppet mohair fur coats grew on me.. but this.. another story entirely

Sasha is such an incredible model.
She looks incredible in all three shots.

I don't want the season to come where Sasha isn't the Prada model

Amen! I totally agree...months after the FW 07 collection, I grew to appreciate and even like it, but, it's been months since the SS 08 show and I STILL cannot swallow it!

For me, Prada has a way to redeem it's collection on runway in the ads. I don''t like the clothes but in the ads, they seem to add a rich pallette of colours making the ads stand out.

It's predictable though and I really hope Prada will stop using Sasha, although she does look like a doll here.
