Yves Saint Laurent F/W 08.09 : Naomi Campbell by Inez & Vinoodh

[Aby]

I don't know if I like it or not.

The pics are interesting but I'm not moved and I don't crave for the clothes / accessories either so I guess this campaign, or at least the few pics we've seen, failed its purpose on me.

i can't wait for more shots, and the Manifesto if there is one

[helmut.newton]

^^^ YES!

When is the manifesto coming out?! Hopefully not during Spring 2009 fashion week! Thats too far away!

[vogue28]

^ Yeah, I agree. That is too far away

[Fidelity]

Well, I'm not a Naomi fan, but the ads look good

[FlanAuxAbricots]

i love these. as *Aby* said, they don't make me crave the particular clothes in the shots but they give off such a sophisticated french and ysl-ish vibe that i crave ysl in general.

Love it! It's simple but powerful.

I'm a bit disappointed

well, maybe that's because most of women tend to buy clothes to wear them rather than to use the clothing as weapon. so i guess they just had to tone down that futuro-anti-utopia. in the end of the day it's about selling shoes and bags and wide pants rather than fighting urban demons

I guess you're right

.. since Pilati was taking us in a tour around Paris over the last few seasons ..
this time I was expecting an outdoor shot as usual, somwhere in La Defense or Paris Bibliotheque or Bastile Opera??? the modern face of the city??

The killing people with stiletto idea is not so wrong since they casted Naomi Campbell I think she did that before but I would love to see Naomi making fun of Naomi for YSL!

I can imagine a wonderful shot for the campaign:she's throwing her phone against someone wearing stilettos and that "Naomi hit me" t-shirt
