So they had to jam bags images in there?
I like the portraits but last season´s layout was way better imo

So nice to see Iman on a major campaign. The portraits are beautiful but it's too similar from last season that there's no excitement anymore.

Gotta sell those bags! They're beautiful images (and Iman is a fantastic addition) but last season was better executed and a bit more exciting imo

 

[Nymphaea]

It feels like clutter compared to last season. They should have ditched the bags.

Same here! I'm not sure if it's because I'm looking at all of in one post or not, but it looks terribly cluttered. I can already tell that I'm not a fan of the b&w shots.

Possible art direction issues aside, I love the photography and cast!

 

[mepps]

Beautiful portraits and I love that Iman is a part of this.
The bags are too much much tho. It's all a bit cluttered.

 

[Fiercification]

Hmmm @ Tami being part of the group shots, but not getting a solo portrait. I see how it is.

It's "rewind.jpg" to last season but I love the portraits of Iman and Faretta. Didn't need Freja here though; we've seen her do this look for Valentino, and with David Sims in F/W 2010.

Same concept as last season? This is boring. I pass.

I wish Kirin, Cong and Tami had portraits. Also, I wish Aleyna Fitzgerald was part of this.

This campaign fails to have any kind of impact on me. It feels cluttery, unfocused and indecisive. Too bad, last season blew me away.

 

[gossiping]

love it, theres so much to look at ! great campaign

 

[tjasmine]

Wish Tami and Cong had gotten portraits! Do love this campaign though.

 

[zacatecas570]

Terrible cast, terrible campaign!

Wish Tami and Cong had gotten portraits! Do love this campaign though.

To quote from someone above... "I see how it is."

Why should they? Bags and shoes are their top products that people buy

 

[Phannavongsar]

They are using pictures from Backstages, guys is like last season -
CONCEPT : PORTRAIT AND BACKSTAGE!

 

[anlabe32]

Gorgeous portraits but I agree that it doesn't have the same impact as last season. Hopefully he'll do something else next season. I also don't like the shots with the bags but i'm happy they got rid of Terry Richardson shooting the accessories.

They are using pictures from Backstages,

I'm not sure. I checked and some models wore different outfits on the runway show then in these "backstage" pictures. Perhaps you're right and they did shoot it backstage but then some models were chosen to wear different looks, and not just a picture where they were waiting in line.

Glad Pierpaolo is still amused by Freja's charme after so many years! She rocks!
