Lord... Have mercy. That's a lot of bad information to handle at once!

He wants to be a photographer now?

 

[RedSmokeRise]

Well .. its a terrible effort!

Very 2001.

Matthew got him looking like a Tekken or Dead or Alive early 2000s game cover with all that post production.

Don't mind the texture of the feathered piece - the only thing I like in this - but it really isn't about the clothes at all.

Are they like saving on a photographer to keep the lights on? This is bad, might as well just end this.

Same face, same angle, same demeanor.

Is this Ai generated?

Okay, Matthew is trying to be the new Karl- doing everything. I will say his obsession with asian culture feels a bit fetishized in a way. The images aren't thrilling or feel new. If it wasn't for the logo, I don't know that this could even truly feel evocative of Givenchy as a house. His collection details are great, when you take a closer look or hear him explain them; but the way it translates to campaigns is still missing that deep connector for me.

For him to have as much control, creatively, as they are allowing him; this could've been stronger. Would love more focus on the clothes and the strength of their details; instead of the celeb. This campaign isn't enough to get me to want to buy. I am fully distracted by Taeyang's hair.
