TOUR2008 Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Coming soon - Madonna in Louis Vuitton's new campaign MadonnaTribe has just received some fresh info about the upcoming Louis Vuitton campaign featuring Madonna who was photographed by Steven Meisel for their Autumn/Winter 2009 collection in New York on April 29 under the artistic direction of Marc Jacobs. We've been told that the result of this new collaboration is once again simply stunning but most importantly for those who were worried about this "Part Deux" it looks very different from the Spring campaign and has a completely original feel. Madonna's look in the new images will be basically the one you're all familiar with thanks to the MET gala: long boots, a few variations of dresses mainly in blue and magenta, and this year's Vuitton's signature bunny ears. Madonna is always wearing gloves and in every image she holds a different bag from the new collection of the French maison. She's portraied leaning on a sofa and seated on an armchair, with a heavy, plain curtain in the background. This time there is no set location at all - the atmosphere is a bit dark and definetly intimate. One interesting part is that each image is digitally enhanced with colorizing effects that somehow recall the high-dynamic range photography, giving to the new campaign an absolutely contemporary yet timeless vibe. From what we understand up to seven different images - spanning from close-ups to american-shot compositions - will be released in the August 2009 issue of fashion magazines worldwide coming out next month
Narendra Sen Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Fabulous!! And from what I've heard, one of the photos for this campaign will be used as cover for 'Iconography'...
Voguerista Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Awesome!!! I can't wait!!!!!! Loves her work with them everytime!!!!
Genevieve Vavance Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 anna_h: they are all really quite psychedelic in terms of paint. they're colorful in both faded and strong ways bouncing on the dominant purple,blue,pink dimness, while her shades have actually been contrasted into radiant colors. meisel has certainly added a new edge to his latest works with this remarkable ad campaign which could almost be mistaken for a mert and marcus session. the bunny ears are for the fun and irony of it and only contributes to the dazzle.
Guest valhum Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 The previous photos, when were they shown in magz, billboards, etc ????

Irony? Anyway, hope the pictures look great.
Guest ursaminorjim Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Creepy as hell. And the Rayograph technique just isn't working. I mean, I get it - you wanna be artistic, but you still need to sell those tacky-ass bags. Still, there's got to be a better way to split the difference, no? And why the hell does she have to look like one of those living sex dolls? Hope the other shots work better!

stijn Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 I love it, reminds me of the movie mannequin en the song from starship! starship
zephyralexxx Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 brilliant work. you gotta appreciate the post-work they had done after taking the pictures.
Glindathegood Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 I love it, too! It's very stylized and doll like but it suits the clothes.
afrolito Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 This was posted on fanzine by mr breathless I love it! The colors and styling are superb.
Guest bulgar Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 yea, i love the art direction: colors, textures, shapes, etc etc
neutrocks Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 This was posted on fanzine by mr breathless The effect they have on the pic reminds me slightly of the first promo pic they released for the Confessions project. She looks great. It's obvious Lous Vuitton's creates very eccentric items. Doesn't surprise me that the fashion photos compliments in the same manner.
ryan Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 i like it, i like it alot much better than the previous ad
Guest chatty kathy Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 i like it, i like it alot much better than the previous ad And I'm the complete opposite. Maybe I'll like this one better after seeing all the shots, and it may grow on me!
Voguerista Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 So beautiful!!!!!! The colors are out of this world!
