Good point. It's kind of surprising to see Jac after Belle d'Opium with Mélanie Thierry.

Having said that, who is actually responsible for the cast of the beauty/fragrance campaigns? I know Charlotte Gainsbourg for Balenciaga Perfume was Nicolas' personal choice, so I guess Pilati was involved in casting Jac as well?

i thought that, since YSL Beaute belongs to L'Oreal now, Pilati would have little say in those matters?

I dont really recall Pilati taking a liking to Jac. I thought he liked girls like Joan Smalls, which would have been a vast improvement in my opinion. I loved Melanie Thierry's ad, it was so sensual and so much more cinematic than this.

The pose is kinda awkward...but Jac looks amazinggg!

then again, Joan Smalls would be an improvement over nearly every girl who gets an ad campaign these days...

^ lol exactly. She's so much more...flavourful.

Polish top model Monika «Jac» Jagaciak is the face of the fragrance. Photographer Enrique Badulescu shot the ad campaign in Mexico.

her face reminded me a little bit of Veruschka in the Safari suit back from 1968.

the flacon shape takes the outline & the cap of In Love Again, so I wonder if it is a summer limited edition??

& I prefer the YSL Beaute creative direction under Tom Ford , it was more bold & focused, presented a modern YSL image, can't get enough from M7 & NU.

^ wow this would be a great ad.
her eyes, face and pose - everything is so mature, seducitve, mysterious. well i don't say that Jac isn't beautiful, but she's just a child. she's no YSL woman.

[Street_a_Licious]

yeah, i agree, they could have easily taken this old photo, colored it (if they felt the need for it) and used it instead of this lackluster new one

[jacquelineo]

This is unbelievably bad. Jac has never impressed me in print and this once again proves why.

[Unknownpleasures]

This was shoot in mexico?

[Urban Stylin]

is that an anaconda in front of her?

she or Gisele or even Kate Moss would have rocked it better. A woman that goes on Safari and puts in that much effort to look glamorous can't be17. Shes most definitely a cougar on the prowl for a new cub.
