^She looks amazing. Mariacarla is always a perfect choice for this type of photography. Reminds me of Teller's work for YSL under Pilati.

Was the hair and makeup crew on leave of absence? Pfft

This could've been so glamorous.

I love Mariacarla’s shot in the black swimsuit. also Carla looks fantastic.

weird posing for Adut and bad lighting for the other pics. or maybe is the lack of make up:

considering the cast and photographers this campaign should’ve been stellar but all I can see is Teller photographing with a gun pointed at his head.

I prefer when they go oversaturated instead of this Teller aesthetic. Looks promising, though. Mariacarla will always be an ultimate star.

The casting feels Very Riccardo Tisci IMO…
Terrible campaign. Carla looks a mess…

 

[Velasco]

Naomi’s leg shot brings to mind Brooke Shield’s classic leg shot with Calvin Klein. And I’m here for it!

It looks like a boring W editorial or something. For a campaign, it doesn't work.

Naomi looks great tho.

It just gets better, I think this is perfect for Balmain's "new" structured aesthetic. This is indeed Teller meets "A Quoi Rêvent Les Filles" editorial by M&M for Vogue Paris August 2015.

 

[Nomar]

It's like they tried to emulate Saint Laurent's aesthetic but just couldn't get it right. The only good thing I can say is that it's nice to see Lara and Carla in action again.

I'm so tired of that complicit, aged icon being used as a way for every single silly brand to get their 10 minutes. She needs to be gone!

 

[Zposen]

I love the styling tbh...the clothes look all so good!

 

[RaisinBoy]

Gotta love Naomi! Not the pictures ..

Not Balmain or M&M's finest hour but the casting certainly compensates for the fairly standard and subpar imagery. The weak colouring in the daytime photos is awful. The photos seemingly shot at night with Naomi and ones of Adut posing under a vibrant blue sky are far superior!
