Doesn't this happen to you all the time — you're lounging around a beach in a ball gown? OK, chances are it doesn't, but it has happened to Dolce & Gabbana's Cruise 2009 models Claudia Schiffer, Catherine McNeil, and Maryna Linchuk. While overly baked beach-goers fry in the sun, the pale (and pissed!) models sit around in their fancy frocks and tuxedo suits. The juxtaposition of the beach and the formal pieces make this one eye-catching campaign. It caught me off guard when I first saw it. Do you think these are effective or plain silly?

Meh.
1I think I expect an ad like this from D&G. However, I am grossly distracted by the super tan [older] lady in the silver swimsuit. It's a bit bizarre, perhaps unfitting.
2why is Donatella Versace modeling for Dolce and Gabbana?
3It's different!
4Pretty much what you would expect from D&G.
5what's up with this recent hunched over look? it's so odd...
6"Recent" hunched over look? I was just about to comment that that pose is so dated...
7making a comeback, perhaps?
8I could do without the people in the bathing suits.
9The "hunch" is one of Tyra's "high fashion" poses on ANTM. To be honest, it's lame.
10I don't care for it at all.
11LOL @ Papaver. I saw this ad in a few of my mags, I think it's hilarious and great.
12I like it. Definitely not your typical ad but I dig the juxtaposition of ugly tanned vs. model beauty
13lol i love papaver's comment!
14Pissed is right!
And I too adore Papaver's comment...I thought the same thing!
15What's up with Claudia's face??!! The ads are strange... I don't get it!
