Balenciaga Spring 08

Let me just say it. I LOVE this image. What makes a good campaign? To me - a powerful image. And Jennifer Connelly looks like the ghostly demi-couture goddess that she is. (Not to mention she happens to look about 16?) Does this translate into sales? I have no idea - but the stark contrast of colourful florals on such a severe silhouette - and similarly orange on turquoise seems somehow just right. 

TFS.

I personally find it a tiny bit scary.

Although the one thing I love about it is the fact it has the affect of Marmite; You either love it or hate it!

^^ Really elisabeth? I love it, and I knew she would pull it off beautifully. I mean it was either her or Terrence Koh!
