I think I love it; which is worse? :ninja:
 
I know I hate it. I adore Scarlett but in those ads she just looks like a tacky shepherdess. The bags are hideous but that's just LV, but IMHO Marc Jacobs did real harm to this girl's image with this session...
 
I don't like Scarlett one bit but the ad girl doesn't look like her at all. Looking at the rope in the second picture wrapped around her body, it looks like a tattoo no sense of reality, no shadow of skin tightening. Hate the fact that the airbrushing is so heavy but I have to give it to Scarlett for delivering the face.
 
The campaign reminds me of John Currin's work.
Am I the only one :unsure:

JOHN CURRIN: THE HOBO, 1999

I think they are trying to reference the Rococo period in painting. Particularly because they used a swing[SIZE=-1] as a prop, Jean-Honoré Fragonard's painting The Swing comes to mind. This period is seen as very indulgent so I guess it fits well with the LV brand. Scarlett's skin tone and features very similar to the women depicted in rococo paintings.

Scarlett just does not know how to pose. Her expression is vacant and awkward.
 
I love them, I think she looks fresh and girly which fits the collection perfectly and I love the vintage postcard feel to them

By jove you're right :woot:
 
these dont impress me at all, even though i really liked the collection...
 
Not a big fan of Scarlett, and not a big fan of these ads. They just do nothing for me.
 
I like concept and colors. I expected much worse so is not bad considering.
 
I think the ads are gorgeous. And I love that its Scarlett Johansson, someone who actually has a few curves. :heart:
 
Holy crap. I actually like it :ninja: and I'm usually one of the first to complain whenever a celeb gets major fashion contract.
