^ that would have been cool!!

i don't like these. I like Jennifer but she seems stiff and awkward here.

but i don't know if it would be any better w/ a model.

^^^Ahh yes indeed

It would have preferred it with a model (don't get me wrong, I really like the ads as they are, but I would have liked it more if it were a model) ...I mean, I love Jennifer, and I love that she wears Balenciaga a lot, she looks great in it...but I think these clothes NEED a model, you just have to have legs to pull this look off...and Jennifer's legs look kind of short in the ad.

Plus, if you're going to make Jennifer look exactly like Carolina Pantoliano, you might as well have used Carolina Pantoliano!

a model would have carried the garment better. it seems so out of character for Jennifer Connelly to be wearing it.

 

[Cosette]

I always thought that Jennifer had a profined, kind of endless beauty, slightly royal and a bit masculine.
I like the ads, one of the better ads including actors!

I definitely agree with you! and I love the blue.

I love Jennifer Connelly but I am very underwhelmed here. I think the most disappointing campaign of the season. I blame David Sims and Fabien Baron(if he's still involved)...Balenciaga should go back to M/M and I&V. Thanks for posting though.

don't like this at all!

The lighting is a little Prada F/W 07/08. I think they're okay, overall.

I like the outfit but the blue background is just

I definitely agree with you! and I love the blue.

I totally forgot to mention that. The blue contrasts so beautifully with the orange pattern of the dress. I like how the shell-looking part is also highlighted!

i suppose we're gonna get used to these and, with all this magazine fever starting a new season it will surely be a relief to stop one's eyes on such simple images. sometimes the more doesn't mean the better.
anyway, it's balenciaga. they never do mainstream.

one moree. so boring and un-balenciaga. yawn

 

[alimi]

of course i'd prefer a model..but i do think she looks soo beautiful in these.. she looks really similar to carolina p. in my opinion, who i think is incredibly beautiful.
edit: just found out someone has already pointed that out. hah

 

[Mr-Dale]

Hmmm...I am disappointed with this. I would've rather had those Kori and Egle rumors to have been true

 

[baddabling]

Egle would have been so amazing...
all of the prints and structure in this collection had so much potential for an stunning ad campaign...and then this came out

but ali, you're right. she does look fantastic.

 

[valentina_rocks]

shes pretty but just not really likin it

 

[dior_couture1245]

I don't really like the pin/ brooch. I could have done without that. I can't wait to see the other images from the campaign.

 

[cutxpaste]

I agree with some of the previous posts. I would have preferred a model getting the campaign, but Jennifer looks stunning.

dont understand all the negativity here . . . i love them !
