This is awful, reallly awful. Whoever creatively directed this, needs to be fired. Just reading through people's opinions of the Balenciaga collection and what they envision for the advertising - any one of those ideas posted here by one of our members - is infinitely more interesting and appealing that this.
Besides, its no secret that ever since Sims left, Balenciaga advertisements have been mediocre. You simply cannot compare something as powerful as Spring 2005 to this.
