Valerija Kelava with a creepy old Missoni

Stylistic and familiar unity; fashion and life inspired - like in the previous ‘Family Portrait’ and ‘Family and Friends’ - also the brand-new A Wonderful Life, the ad campaign for Winter 2011 Missoni, once again signed by artist/photographer Juergen Teller and thought as a tribute to founder Ottavio, who in February celebrated his 90th birthday.

Legendary Tai – former Olympic athlete and founder and emblem of a brand among the most beloved and ancient of the Made in Italy – is portrayed between models Kaitlin Aas, Valeria Kelava, Kinga and Kristina Salinovic, with the natural, almost metaphysical, background of the Alberoni preserve, on the Lido di Venezia. He keeps on being a source of inspiration, with his unmistakable, sophisticated and informal elegance, and he adds a touch of quality and intensity sui generis.
This contributes to transform the brand into a mix of myth and reality, authenticity and fiction, shape and content.

A photographic sequence that excites, fascinates and puzzles; that reinterprets with a contemporary point of view subjects and atmospheres of a XVIII century painting. And at the same time it’s a fashion advertisement that goes beyond, it speaks about something different, it’s able to short-circuit information, clothes, attitudes, and to show topical interest, beauty, identity and intensity of different ages and generations.

Kind of sick of Teller sucking the life out of all my favorite designers' campaigns. This isn't quite as bad as his other efforts this season. And I really like the model cast, including Tai

 

[TeeVanity]

really happy seeing Valerija!

 

[Style Savvy]

Katlin looks STUNNING.

 

[mackos]

Um, Tai looks really creepy in these shots, especially in the one with the hands.

So happy to see Valerija and Katlin, they look really beautiful.

 

[Squizree]

Katlin is seriously kickass in these shots.

I don't mind Juergen Teller at all, but he and Missoni are not a good fit.

 

[judelove]

agreed. juergen is so bleh. i miss the old style, but i do love the model casting and the styling and of course, the clothes. i don't mind the old man, he doesn't look creepy at all to me, just like a cute little old man.

Katlin I'm so pleased with the cast!!! all girls look beyond amazing

Although Meisel is not doing his best atm, the fall 2008 and spring 2009 campaigns were amazing. I would love to see Missoni return to those days.

It's nice seeing Katlin, but Missoni ads have been going down hill for seasons. The last good one was s/s 08 with Bianca Balti. The one with isabeli & Natasha was good, but I liked the Bianca one better.
