Gap S/S 2008 by Mikael Jansson and Inez & Vinoodh

Anja looks good. The rest look like crap, and Chanel looks like she has dentures and they're sliding out of her mouth.
 
i just looked at these again, and Chanel really does look bad. plus Coco too, but that's to be expected :)
 
Looking at these ads it occured to me what's missing with GAP's womenswear--femininity. Why is their clothing and styling for women always so "butch"?


I don't agree with that. I was at Gap yesterday and was marveling at all of the pretty button-down blouses... something they've really pressed the last couple of seasons. And the dresses - some of them are pretty cute.
 
well...cheers to gap being able to shoot these ads in a way thats kind of flattering for their clothing, but the models do look quite awkward. chanel is awful and boring, usual and brad... i'm so sick of seeing him. karl should have kept him in chanel.
 
and her skin looks terrible. they should have done some retouching. !!!

The problem is they don't showcase this style in their ads. Baggy pants and wrinkled oversize shirts might be fetching on a models but on the average woman it reads "butch".
 
^Mmmm...okay it depends on how you wear it. I think baggy trousers look quite nice if their paired with a nice blouse or something. It's not "butch" at all. Take these outfits for example...I think the pants look very nice and feminine. Again, how you wear it is all there is to it.

^exactly! Anyways, Behati is really the only one who stands out as the worst for me. Everyone else looks ok.
