couture, print ads

spring/summer 2010 couture
((armani prive))

inspirations from the moon translated into some beautiful pieces.

((chanel))

didn't like too much out of this one...maybe the 60+ pictures i had to look through while half asleep made me less interested. liked the tweed, the short dresses, and the accessories though.

((christian dior))

so whimsical! i love it. i would love to see that last dress up close...

((elie saab))



it was really hard to only choose 8 pieces...i want EVERYTHING! so gorgeous...

((jean paul gaultier))

mariachi and sombreros never looked so sexy. jpg=genius.

((others))

my favorites would have to be either jean paul gaultier or elie saab. i love how couture is pure art, with no holding back. it's such a different sense of drama than ready-to-wear.


oh, and alexander wang's first print ad...

apparently planning on some guerrilla advertising? (nitrolicious)

and... KATE MOSS&LONGCHAMP

dying for this gloucester bag! ($990.....)

コアラのマーチ

uhhhmm.....



The agency K|D of Bangkok, Thailand just made a fool out of our beloved コアラのマーチ ... It's hilarious, but this is totally straying from the brand image. I mean honestly, how did Lotte even agree to this? Where are they even running these print ads.... I don't know, it may just be me analyzing it from a Japanese market perspective, since it is a Japanese product.
"LOOK AT ME!!!" is the copy too...really?
(from ads of the world)
