can't take my eyes off MCB & Lea T love this & can't wait for MORE!

I'm not thrilled about the first images with the matching combo of white shirts and black pants. The second one is really stunning, though! The stale blue and vibrant red complement each other so well.

Also, I'm not sure if this is good marketing strategy. By releasing the fall campaign before summer even starts, people are going to see this campaign and then forget about it when other campaigns are released at more relevant times closer to fall. I could be completely wrong about this though.

I think you raised a valid point here. Although I am anxious to see the rest of this campaigns pics.......when other campaign pics emerge these may become a distant memory. I don't ever remember ad pics being released this early, and although I personally welcome it, from a marketing POV it might possibly fail.

Aren't people a bit too crazy about it ? I feel like 2012 is coming earlier than planned as I see a lot of "", "", "" and all ...
It would've been another brand, i wouldn't be so sure there would've been such a craze like this.
I think the "red" part is too concentrated in the middle, like there's a big stain in the middle and nothing around. I don't see neither what the pink Malgosia's hair does here.. And i don't find that the characters are in "osmosis" (don't know whether it is understandable or not..).

^ I know if this were another brand, people would still go ape**** over it. The models and the photographers are enough to win people over.

While I do really like the shoot, it does lose its luster since Givenchy released them early. Nevertheless, I can't wait to see the whole story .

there's such a confidence about tisci for givenchy these days and it comes across even in this ad campaign. it courts controversy while taking nothing away from these exceptional clothes and accessories.

 

[clocked]

PERFECT. Catherine being in this just seals the deal for me. LOVE THIS!!!

Loving every single bit of it. I adore the idea that Ricardo Tisci gave a transexual a chance to grace his ad campaign. That just won me over.

The idea of this campaign reminds me a LOT of the Spring/Summer 2010 one but there`s something about this that I can`t get over with. Maybe it`s because Catherine is here and she looks STUNNING as usual. Love the poses, the HOT kissing, and the clothes and hair.

This is just an ad at it`s best. What a way to start F/W 10 ads. Can`t wait to see this in prints!

didnt Givenchy release their S/S 2010 campaign early as well
and then it kind of got tossed to the back as well

 

[ad041715]

^ So was Fall 09. I remember I completely forgot about it towards the end.

Complicit looks, and the promise of a kiss between two women: an ambiguous mix of masculine and feminine looks against hues of red, blue, white, grey and beige: the Givenchy campaign for F-W 2010-2011, photographed by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggot in Paris.

Sophisticated images against a provocative background. In the forefront, the collection designed by Riccardo Tisci. What has people talking -- and caused the images to make the rounds of the web even before the campaign has been officially published -- is the presence of Lea T: ex-assistant of Tisci, currently a student of veterinary medicine, ex-model and transexual.

Tisci wanted to use her "for her fragile appearance and her aristocratic air." Together with Lea T are the models Maria Carla Boscono -- a close friend of Tisci's -- and Malgosia Bela, Catherine McNeil, Joan Smalls, Ming Xee and Jamie Bochert. The featured male beauties are Jonathan Marquez, Paolo Rolden, Simon Nessman and Willy Cartier.
