Fendi F/W 10.11 : Anja Rubik and Baptiste Giabiconi by Karl Lagerfeld

[elsaskywalker]

Yeah, that would be difficult to do better than last season...
Don't really like it, bit boring, but let's wait for bigger pictures to judge!

 

[Northern Star]

This is pretty decent. I'm interested to see them in an actual magazine.
They have a very cinematic feel to them and Anja plays her part prefectly.....although the first pic hardly looks anything like her.
This would be a whole lot better of course minus Derek Zoolander.

Meh. Boring.

I'm pretty over those shots. After getting through this thread, I agree about the editorial-like mood of the campaign - something I didn't take notice of at first glance - but it doesn't bug me at all, I'm actually glad Karl went for a different concept than the dream-like one he used for the past two seasons. The pastel-colored setting showcases the clothes even more effectively, and I like the non-haphazard side of the atmosphere. As for Anja, she looks stunning - my single grief would go out to Karl's obsession with Baptiste. I've got a bittersweet feeling about him turning up in the campaign - relieved because he appears on only one shot, annoyed because he looks like an unecessary accessory.

Nice, but i prefer the past season.

 

[MyNameIs]

I like the colors and the backdrop.

 

[Rigida]

beautiful! i love this!

 

[Crying Diamonds]

I don't really know what to think yet - I love the setting and the accessories, and I love the clothes and I think Lagerfeld chose the set well as the clothes are strange and difficult to put into a situation IMO. The things that put me off currently though is the makeup and the promotion of the shoes which, tbf, are horrific.

 

[ForChicSake]

the concept is good but anja & baptiste are as lifeless as the furniture, that aspect ruins the ads

 

[Wolkfolk]

I'm really disapointed by this. They could have made a fantastic campaign with such a good collection and Anja. The aim was good, I like the retro vibe and all, but the result is awfully weak.

I was told by a sale assistant for Fendi that they were not printing any brochure/catalogues this F/W season as opposed to last S/S 2010. That would be a right shame if it were true. Anyone heard of this?

 

[BibiRose]

Anja- again, Baptiste- again... It's boring, . The idea is good though.

 

[mikeijames]

this reminds me of an old prada campaign from her forties' inspired collection. i'm glad that sort of cinematic fashion photography still has an audience.

 

[nijuyanah]

Oh no Last season Fendi (and Anja!) actually managed to convince me and I was really looking forward to see how they adapt that to this season's campaign. Now, looking at the shots: what a dissapointment.

 

[TREVOFASHIONISTO]

im sorry but i dont get th Italian couple theme
they look like they are either business partners or they
are brother and sister on a family trip...

and when I say this looks like an editorial i mean its telling a story as a whole instead of just one image being able to sell by itself, seperately the only shot that I would stop to look at is the green jacket(exquisite) and the shoe ad
the other ones are far off and i look at those hideous walls before I do the clothes

 

[maxlinden]

i like it but i agree with xerq it really does look like an editorial. But will say i did not expect this

 

[mikeijames]

it reminds me of this ten year old prada campaign...

[[Piece Of Me]]

One of the most disappointing campaigns of the season so far. I adored the last 2 Fendi campaigns and when I heard Anja was going to do it again, I was so excited. But this is definitely not what I was expecting. I can barely recognize Anja in the shots and I think it's pretty boring.

 

[GuitarShow]

It takes me a few seconds to recognize Anja. Karl should move Baptiste out of the fourth pic, no need to paint the lily.

Love it!
