Fab Ad: H&M, Holiday '09

FabSugar — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 09:00:22 -0800

Check out Sasha Pivovarova, Missy Rayder, and Malgosia Bela in their holiday best . . . H&M holiday best to be precise. The retailer's latest ads share the best of both worlds: jolly and sexy. These noir getups, especially Missy's, are stunning, but I also love the cozy knits. And isn't that what the holidays are all about - going from comfy, festive loungewear to all-out-fabulous, then back to those cozy pajamas? I can't wait! What do you think of these latest?

The Fab Faces of Spring '10

FabSugar — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 04:00:22 -0800

With Spring ready-to-wear in the bag, designers are conjuring up their Spring ad campaigns, placing the hottest of the hot with the most stylish shutterbugs. Thus far, we know Lara Stone will star in Louis Vuitton's ads, while Daisy Lowe will shine for its swimwear line. In Versace land, Donatella has chosen Fabcon Georgia May Jagger to be photographed by Mario Testino. On the celebrity front, Madonna was snatched up by Dolce & Gabbana - we're hoping she won't look as photoshopped as her previous Louis Vuitton ads.

To learn who else is starring in Spring '10 ads, read more.

Valerija Kelava and Carmen Kass for Celine
Natalia Vodianova for Yes Saint Laurent, Givenchy, Stella McCartney, Guerlain and Etam
Ali Kay (Alex von Furstenberg's fiancee) for Diane von Furstenberg Eyewear
Freja Beha Erichsen, Baptiste Giabiconi, and Claudia Schiffer for Chanel
Kasia Struss for Balenciaga
Raquel Zimmermann for Alexander McQueen
Karlie Kloss for Christian Dior

Fab Ad: Gucci, Cruise '10

FabSugar — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 03:00:22 -0800

Let's take a mini escape from Fall and focus on resort. For their Cruise '10 collection, Gucci ditched most of its Fall '09 models but kept Natasha Poly and added Snejana Onopka. The campaign was shot in Barcelona by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott - Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin previously shot Gucci campaigns. Snejana, Natasha, and male model Ryan Kennedy have a sun-filled time while we sit back and gaze in envy. The vacationing trio should be having a blast, but rather, they look quite disconnected from one another. Why so serious? Well, at least they look spotless. What do you think?

I can see why Scarlett Johansson's been busy jet-setting around the world to promote her latest ad campaign for Mango.The sexy actress looks sizzling hot showing off the Spanish retailer's array of minidresses, tailored blazers, perfectly ripped sweaters (my fave), and funky tunics. ScarJo's messy short bob has major ferosh factor and works in perfectly with Mango's hip offerings. I can't wait for that jewel-embellished miniskirt to hit stores!

Fab Ad: Uniqlo Heat Tech, Fall '09

FabSugar — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 16:00:22 -0700

Behold Uniqlo's Fall ad campaign for its Heat Tech collection - made from Milk Proteins, which traps heat. You ready for it? Lily Donaldson, Coco Rocha, Erin Wasson, Sasha Pivovarova, Karlie Kloss, Sessilee Lopez, and Tao Okamoto are all stylishly bundled up with snow-capped mountains in the background. I have a feeling what they're wearing, albeit totally cute, wouldn't prevent frostbite. No matter, the shots are captivating and the models are diverse. What do you think? Is this campaign making you melt or freeze?

Battle of the Fall Ad Lineup: DKNY vs. Jones New York

FabSugar — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 09:00:22 -0700

Many models are forming lineups these days - luckily, not for the police, but rather for Fall's hottest ad campaigns. I've been noticing many lineup-style ads lately, and I quite like them because they cut out the frills and bring us face to face with the matter at hand: the creations. That, and the industry's most gorgeous models. DKNY's Fall '09 lineup - starring Bette Franken, Behati Prinsloo, Daiane Conterato, Anna Gushina, and more - is structured, with the girls standing sturdy, shoulder to shoulder. Jones New York's lineup with Anja Rubik, Caroline Trentini, Isabeli Fontana, and Liya Kebede is more friendly and lively. Both showcase the clothes flawlessly, but which ad lineup wins?

Fab Ad: Dita von Teese For Wonderbra

FabSugar — Fri, 02 Oct 2009 12:00:22 -0700

It's been a while since we've seen Dita in her Wonderbra. And boy does she do it justice - she makes me want to give the brand a new try. I know my waist will never be as teensy as hers, but the Wonderbra does promise to work wonders right? Having Dita as the brand ambassador was a smart move, and Wonderbra has revamped its website to be sexy and interactive, but where's Dita within the site? Back to the ads at hand, I dig the large one, where Dita is admiring herself in the mirror. The sexy colors and shadows set a sultry mood, and doesn't she kind of look like Elizabeth Taylor? The smaller shots are a bit too Photoshopped for my taste - isn't Dita perfection without the airbrush? What do you think?

Fab Ad: Alexander McQueen, Fall '09

FabSugar — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 06:50:22 -0700

When you are known to be one of the most theatrical designers, you have a reputation to live up to. While we anxiously await Alexander McQueen's Spring 2010 video extravaganza, I found his Fall ads. If you recall, his collection was brimming with goth glam houndstooth and sculptural shapes - it was nothing short of magnificent. I guess it's hard to top the clothes, so McQueen opted for a broken mirror background. The multiple image effect is sometimes cool, I guess I just expected more from Britain's bad boy. Are you impressed?

Fab Ad: Liz Claiborne, Fall '09

FabSugar — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 05:50:22 -0700

Liz Claiborne creative director Isaac Mizrahi has taken his girls back to the streets. For Spring it was Georgina Stojiljković in the city; for Fall it's Coco Rocha in the country. The Canadian model looks so royal, so mature in her long pleated plaid skirt and plaid shirt. I'm especially taken by the vibrant autumnal hues. And look: Coco's super-red hair sort of matches the roofs of the houses. Equally dazzling in color is the shot of Coco in a grocery store (below). What do you make of Liz Claiborne's Fall ads? If you fancy the plaid-happy clothes, shop them now.
