I loved the Spring 2001 Chloe ads featuring Jessica White

Chloe

I tend to like Chloe ads in general. I found a site which shows most of them(from Stella and Phoebe)

Chloe Ads

I like the ads from Versace F/W 2001, Gucci F/W 2003. And I love the most recent ads from both as well. I hate Baby Phat ads. I've yet to see one that appeals to me (like that'll ever happen )

For example, the very, very, very damn worst ad campaign (well... calling it fashion might be stretching it, but this is AWFUL) is for Axe Body Spray. Click here to view a flash that shows all of it.

It's basically a montage of beautiful women in nice clothes cuddling up to... a giant armpit. With legs. In a variety of romantic situations.

Can anyone point out an ad campaign that is less likely to make you want to spend money than one that features a giant arm pit with legs?!

I HATED those Versace ads with Christina Aguilera, Courtney Love (What the hell?), and Rianne Ten Haken :vomit:

My all time favorite ads were these from Versace

Those two ads are so cute and just make me smile whenever I look at it.

Ooooooh, Toxxxic, it's so pretty! *shiny, shiny, shiny*

Ahem.
Anyway, I really liked the Dior Addict ad campaign; it was so sexy and eye-catching, even if it did totally glamorize drug use.

here's the shot (from jozworld.com)...and it was Mario Testino, not Terry Richardson. He did the campaign with Erin Wasson and Natasa V.

Christ! They better have paid that model they did that to extra!

I actually like many Guess campaigns. They did gorgeous things with Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, Megan Ewing, Julie Ordon, Eva Herzigova, Laetitia Casta, Claudia Schiffer, and even Anna Nicole Smith back in the days. Very feminine, very sexy, very iconic.

Some of my favorite ads:

But yeah, the Guess campaigns since 2003 have sucked. And the Paris Hilton one is truly awful! I'll put that up a little later...

WORST: probably Anne Klein spring 2004...especially the one with her in the elevator between two other people. It was horrible...the emphasis seemed to be on the other girl as opposed to the model, and the composition and lighting were extremely dull

BEST: Prada spring 2003....loved the black and white photos of Elise...looking kind of mod with the color block prada logo. It was perfect.

 

[erin_k]

loved : versace w/ christina. tiffany &co w/ Shalom Harlow, CK obsession w/ kate moss
90s calvin klein underwear ads w/ kate moss

absolutely hated : everything "bebe", everything Guess, except

josie maron channeled a bit of 90s kate moss so i hated it SLIGHTLY less
its also not very much of what Guess is now, tanned, blonde, cheesy, w/paris hilton

I think it was Louise Pedersen and Adam Senn.

 

[Andro]

The hands-down best ad campaign of the last five years: Versace spring 2001 with Malgosia Bela by Steven Meisel...
Other favorites:

Prada fall 1998
Chanel fall 1998
Versace spring 1999
Jil Sander spring 2000
Jil Sander fall 2000
Chanel spring 2002

And many more that I can't remeber.

My thoughts Exactly! I was just about to post that same list(minus the CHANEL Ads) until I did a search and saw it was already posted by u.

This Calvin Klein ad feat Jessica M is my all-time fave.. worst ads are too many to mention, but the Versace ad w/ Demi Moore was awful.
