Versace F/W 08.09 : Isabeli Fontana & Natalia Vodianova by Mario Testino

Its such a sexy campaign, very happy.

 

[Versace-Goddess]

I love it. The colors, the atmosphere. Everything.

I LOVE the wide shots. The close-up shots are a mixed bag for me. On the one hand, I find the eyewear ads quite lovely. However, the ready-to-wear close-ups (the one below being a good example) strike me as awkward. It's as if Natalia's features are too soft and pixie-like for the mood of this campaign (whereas Isabeli's strong features fit the stark atmosphere really well). As another poster said, she just looks "off."

I really don't like this. Valentino Fall 2007 much?

Also, Isabeli looks so incredibly boring. I would have preferred Daria

I thought the same thing
The dark-light room thing is becoming overused

 

[FRANCY ITALY]

oh this campaign could be boring in a sense, but isabeli, well.. she does by herself this campign good! she is so italian feminine, she suits the brand so well.. the shots of the bags and the second of the glasses are so amazing!
natalia does a good work, too..

The men's campaign:

[testinofan]

very beautiful a<nd solid campaing very stronge i love the use of color, yes is true no like the Patrick photo preference otheer men model, but the campaing is wondefull one of the best in this seasson i loved

 

[Breathless]

Natalia looks like a girl playing dress up! She just does not fit well for Versace!

 

[FRANCY ITALY]

yeah isabeli has stronger features and has italian sexy look.. natalia is too sweet for versace

The men's wear campaign sucks but men's wear campaign hasn't been Versace's thing since Gianni died.

 

[valentina_rocks]

he looks so handsomeeeeeee i LOVEEEE him

 

[Street_a_Licious]

lemme guess. lesbian powercouple, one waits for the other to come home to surprise her 'pleasantly'.

still love that yellow dress Natalia's rocking. and the contrast between the bright colors and the dark background.

as an ad campaign, it certainly fulfills its' duty. it makes the clothes and accesories look sexy and glamorous.

Edit: why not the same idea with Patrick Dempsey? pair him with McSteamy, one nude, the other one dressed. or both nude

 

[darri]

^^ Great Idea!!lol That would liven that sh*t up!!

 

[John Black]

Its nice but i can imagine much better models choice. MICHAELA KOCIANOVA and TANYA DZIAHILEVA would be perfect for versace. Both amazing, incredible, sexy and alien - versace seems to be pretty boring to me last few season they should try to go with some models not so commercial looking. Sometimes is better to risk. Gianni always did it he was picking models from Claudia and Christy to Kristen McMenamy and Kirsten Owen...

I agree.

I like the concept, but not the models. Natalia isn't really a Versace girl, and I've never really like Isabeli. The adds are pretty good; boring though. The eyewear shots are really bad.

 

[FashionPower]

Tanya for next Versace ads please

 

[ChicParisienne]

^ I second that

 

[Royal-Galliano]

yeah isabeli has stronger features and has italian sexy look.. natalia is too sweet for versace

yeah i was thinking quite the same, they two are such a random couple that doesn't do it to me... it should have been just isabeli or just natalia or clon them like they clonned sasha in prada ads... i dont know... still better than if karl would have shot it though
