Balenciaga F/W 09.10 : Jennifer Connelly by Steven Meisel

[oomarhatelier]

crap

 

[cesarcmma]

omg...I'll save my feelings until the full campaign is out.

 

[dior_couture1245]

It's seriously terrible.

I was expecting something very classic looking...a very majestic, proud model standing tall in front of a canvas seamless. I imagined the photographs to be shot in sepia and barely touched up at all...a very true photograph. At least that's how I would have directed it.

Maybe I'm the only one who loved the ads by David Sims, and I'm already seek of seeing most of the recent 'ads' under Meisel's hand (not eds).

 

[MON]

I love it! NEED TO SEE THIS INPRINT!

 

[helmut.newton]

I wonder who the other women in this campaign will be? Obviously Charlotte Gainsbourg will be in this - Meisel is also shooting her for a Balenciaga fragrance.

Can anyone confirm the other ladies in this?

That being said, I love the outfit. It's really tempting, I wanna buy it.

That's the whole point of an ad. It needs to make the consumer want to buy the product. If it works in your case, I think it's accomplished enough. No matter how terrible it looks, it still makes you want to buy the clothes.

I did notice the outfit on the catwalk, but now I appreciate it more.
I love the shimmer and luxe to the fabric.

 

[kellydior]

I love it!

 

[*ana*]

i like it. the way she's almost falling from the couch is a bit distractive though.

 

[cottonmouth13]

is Charlotte Gainsbourg confirmed to star in this campaign? 'cause i thought she's for the fragrance ad.

i'm hoping the other celebrities who will also star in this are Eva Green and Chloe Sevigny.

 

[dee-ha]

i like everything except her face. I dont think she's got the french allure. it's quite disappointing because the collection was so parisian ...

 

[Festat]

Goodness, I don't like it.
People should leave modeling to professionals.

But I already loved it on catwalk. The only thing the ad did was not to ruin it for me. That is because of the supreme design, not because of the quality of the ad. Not even Meisel can ruin a true Ghesquière.

Oh yeah, I guess everyone gets tired of his own photographer...We need some fresh blood for the big campaigns.

 

[balmain1914]

SORRY,i DON'T like the pose..

 

[pajonk]

I can't wait for more.

Oh gosh NOT Charlotte,she has the potential to make this campaign even more hideous and crappy
But I would love to see Eva Green,even if she's not a typical Balenciaga girl and I don't see her very well in those clothes

 

[strawberry daiquiri]

it looks like she's just fallen to earth after her green parachute broke.

 

[mrsjamesdean]

Meh but I love Jennifer

Its like seeing your favourite actor in a bad movie but you still like them

I will never imagine a Dior spokesman got the Balenciaga campaign & i dont think Charlotte can't rock it, she could give sexiness like F/W 08.09 so this time is no exception if she was confirmed
