i find you extremely rude how can you call someone gross im sure you have smarter things to say

Your absolutley right, I do have smarter things to say.
But i'm not wasting it on such a waste of a campaign.

But heres to hoping it will get better
And my opinion still remains.
There have been worst comments about models around here


EDIT: The more I look at him, the more I want to look at him.

immaculate imperfection. but then again, isn't perfection the most boring thing ever?

 

[*ana*]

so far it's definitely not as good as the previous campaign with the simonon brothers, and i don't like the first shot, but the group one is quite nice, even though i don't find the models attractive.

i'm confused....

please READ !

- i know my english is bad, but still -

do you agree or disagree with me? i'm honestly confused.

not really... it is the thing everyone covets mostly.

mike, to try to make it short (and some people know it's not easy with me) ....

i agree that both WINTER 2010 menswear and womenswear share a certain aesthetics, but to me menswear is much more urban-edgy than womenswear (that is pretty 'primitive'), so i think a seperated campain makes sense.
and on another point, i think miuccia is right to do different campains with different vision as men are more and more a unique commercial target. so that wouldn't make sense to me to create a similar campain ...

and if Miuccia has decided to do that (while she used to do a shared storyboard for men and women), it means to me that something has changed ... i just try to understand that.

so i think i disagree with you on the main subject.

it is the thing everyone covets mostly.

to quote Alber Elbaz : "Perfection is boring ! When everything is perfect, there's nothing else to do ..."

Then I guess I am the only one who would be happier if everything could be perfect. I am sure he is very happy with the way he looks. He seems to be.

no, alber hates the way he looks. he thinks he looks like a clown. he just thinks he should not try to correct that because he creates his genius work from the perspective of an outsider. he's afraid that he if goes the marc jacobs' route and involves himself in the very lifestyle he fantasizes about in his sketches, he'll lose the creative impetus.

lots of creative people have this conflict. it's a false conflict, but they have to arrive to it themselves.

great. we can agree to disagree. while us fashion folk may notice the differences between the mens' and womens' campaigns, i don't think the consumer at large would. also, i feel that the two campaigns she delivered this time lack focus altogether. they're great images, but they don't have a message. that's why i say perhaps the challenge of combining these two collections might force her to settle on an actual message.

 

[tigerrouge]

Why would it be a false conflict? It might an entirely correct stance for some.

 

[Royal-Galliano]

i love love love it the guy looks so dreamy

Can we please stay on topic ?

The Prada Menswear campaign isn't the place to discuss the personal issues of Alber Elbaz.

 

[Flashbang]

I just love the new shot.

 

[from: sophia]

I really like this campaign (no surprise but thats ok with me)

[TREVOFASHIONISTO]

that nose looks as if it was photoshopped on

 

[helmut.newton]

I don't know how to extract the campaign from a flash site, but the entire campaign is on the Prada website. Can someone extract the files?

I have to admit, its not very interesting. Most of the shots are with one model against a black backdop. Last season was much better.

^^^ Thanks!

I still think Slimane could have gone with something a little more interesting, don't you think?
