"John Galliano" fragrance by John Galliano

[sweetpop]

I can't help but think that John Galliano would think of something like this and think its a brilliant idea. the picture makes me grin at the slight absurdity of it all, because like every has said, the bottle is really lovely, but the picture just does not match... any concept or idea that someone who isn't John would think of! It's not going to be much help if John's creative concept is only going to appeal to him is it? I'm just itching to try out how it smells now though! Maybe that was his plan... to lure people to try it out because the advertising picture is so .... I reckon anybody who knows that its John Galliano in that picture will excuse him for looking a little strange, I'd actually be kinda worried if he decided to do something that most people would call normal!

This is full of lolz.

The only designer who's allowed to put himself on the ads is Tom Ford. Actually Zac Posen too, under the right circumstances. John Gallioano should just stay behind the scenes.

So what if John decides to put himself in his own campaign? Why would Tom Ford be an exception? He isnt interesting or profound or innovative, just a douchebag.

^ I think by most he'd be considered the more "modelly" of the two.

I'm still in denial about that image being the campaign. My thinking is, it's his first fragrance in 20 something years of business, he'd do an amazing ad no?

Because Tom Ford is HOT that's why.

Yeah, he is hot, but he's still a big annoying bottom. Doesnt matter when your glutes are so tight they dont wiggle when you smack them in a moment of...

I agree Spike that it's unusual, but here's the source and their quote on it. Guess we just wait to see what else emerges.

OMG! You gotta love the megalomaniac John Galliano. I laughed out loud when I read this article in the metropolitan a couple of minutes ago. This is the ad campaign for his first fragrance simply called John Galliano bien sur ... for her! Yeah he would put his face anywhere and everywhere, I just love him!

LOL, as oppose to Galliano?

Ok, this is getting way out of hand, haha.

PS. How do you know about that? Any interesting scoop you'd like to tell everyone?

Not here in this thread, no. Back to topic.

That's about the most obscene portrait photo I've seen in ages. Won't be surprised if the fragrance flop because of it.

in the new german glamour, they're using a different pic for this. i'm really sorry, i don't have a scanner. the model is guinevere van seenus, as far as i can judge, and it's kept very lilac and victorian. there's also no mention that it's called 'bien sur', it's just john galliano.

Now that's much better! I love John but I this ad could do without him in it,hehe.

 

[Florecita86]

Oh,and one more thing, does anyone know when this perfume comes out?

 

[LetThemEatCake]

thanks for the photo vogue28. i much more prefer a model, and a great one like Guinevere, instead of John himself in the campaign.

 

[Milho]

thank god! the actual campaign coming out was so much better. i'd like to know who's the model, anyone knows?

 

[LetThemEatCake]

Guinevere Van Seenus. Here's the pic untagged in HQ from her thread, source-mondino-update.

 

[Spike413]

Wow, now that's a good fragrance ad. The color palette is right up my alley.
