After mixed feelings at the beginning, I really appreciate it when the whole set is out. The make-up brings some sort of drama and well, MCB can't not own it in the end.
The rococo style wig and mole add some spices to this collection, and gotta to say, it's fresh to depict a fierce and independent woman in the 21 century. Still thrilled to see the accessory shots, at least the waist line attracts my attention successfully and I'm tremendously intrigued by the stilettos.

MCB is surely unique, but she only sell me the eyewear. Those i love.
I don't like the other images, imo she doesn't look that good. I've seen her more impressive in other campaigns.
Love this campaign! Huge departure for YSL, but well executed. MCB as always looks amazing. I love the contrast between the beautiful clothes and hair/makeup.
Turned out better than expected, I'm surprised at how much I admire this. David Sims' photography doesn't often fascinate me, especially when taken over from Inez & Vinoodh. Mariacarla is perfect for this, and I frequently feel she's overrated, but I appreciate her here.
I'm not too sure if I like this or not. I think it's one of those campaigns that will grow on me over time. However, the one thing I can't get over is how old MCB looks! It doesn't even look like her.
MCB is a real chameleon we all know that, and the picture are intriguing in the best way possible. But I'm not really impressed by the campaign overall.

I wonder if Mariacarla's look was inspired by Loulou de la Falaise, who died in early November. The thin eyebrows and hair style recall a young Loulou.
