Fab Ad: Drew Barrymore for Gucci Fine Jewelry

October 29, 2007

I've always thought Drew is pretty in a tousled sort of way. But I could never imagine, until I laid eyes on these Gucci Fine Jewelry ads, that she could be such a refined beauty. I did a double take at first because I didn't believe it was her modeling such a glamorous collection of Gucci's famous horsebit designs. She must be very flattered because she is the first ever celebrity to be featured in a Gucci ad. These were shot by Dutch photographers Inez Van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin in a Paris studio. Oh la la!

Drew even got Gucci Creative Director Frida Giannini's stamp of approval: “Drew brought wonderful energy and excitement to this project. She is such a strong and confident woman, but her humor and sensitivity made her completely disarming." Do you share her sentiment about these ads?

Not only am I a huge fan of Drew--hence the avatar--but she has a glow about her that shines through in these ads and whether or not its photo shopped, its believable. In the photos where she has her hand to her lips, she makes the product look yummy and desirable. Kudos to her and to Gucci for this collaboration. I think its beautiful!

Drew looks great. I wouldn't have guessed that was her. Still, she wouldn't have been my first choice.

I adore Drew, love her to death. However these ads don't make me want to do anything. At all... Great photos of a great lady, that do not motivate me to buy Gucci jewelry.

Totally agree with carolx15's comment. :)I always knew Drew could pull something like this off. And I do recognize her.

These pictures are beautiful. I never though Drew could pull off this type of look, but she definitely gets it done here.

Well, I think it looks like Drew. Of course it's photoshopped, what picture is not nowadays? But she has a very perfect skin and doesn't need photoshop. But anyway, Drew looks so gorgeous and sexy that I didn't really find the jewels here, now that I saw them!

I was looking in Elle at one of the Gucci ads and had to do a double take because I wasn't sure if it was drew or not

I simply love them. She looks really great, but I am not looking at the jewels, I am looking at Drew.

She looks good, but for some reason I can't really associate her with Gucci.

nice pics, it doesnt make me want the product ...at all. I kinda wasnt even paying attention to that. I noticed the glitter on the ground, the model - who I had no idea was Drew (she looks amazing) and lastly, she has great skin. Really didnt even notice the jewelry.

She is not my favorite. The ad is OK.

I agree with sweetfirefly totally--of course she's gorgeous, she's photoshopped into oblivion. I can't even recognize her face in most of these pictures. Of course, I love Drew in real life, but this is not very realistic.

SweetFirefly 5 years 29 weeks

They completely airbrushed and photoshopped these pics. I'm not even sure that's not her head on someone elses body. She's more fleshy than that. Unrealistic.
