Another Gossip Girl scores an ad campaign. Leighton Meester follows in Blake's footsteps with a quirky Missoni campaign shot by Juergen Teller that also includes Missoni family members and friends. As fans of Missoni muse Margherita Missoni, we can't help but notice the striking resemblance between Leighton and Margherita, who makes regular appearances in Missoni ads. Check out our slideshow of the campaign and a couple of Leighton-Margherita comparisons. What do you think?

Fab Ad: Missoni, Spring '10

FabSugar — Fri, 15 Jan 2010 03:00:22 PST

In this economy, fashion houses want to cut corners wherever they can. In comes Missoni with its genius conception. For Spring '10, the fashion house skipped the expensive models for something much nearer and dearer to its heart: its famiglia.

“I wanted to highlight our reality and our lifestyle, which is reflected in our unique product and in the artisanal aspect,” said Angela Missoni. “This campaign really reflects the mood I’m in these days, even from a design stance.”

With the help of Juergen Teller, the Italian fashion house told a unique story with images of the whole clan - all wearing Missoni, of course - enjoying dinner at Missoni founders, Rosita and Tai Missoni’s, house. The beautiful Margherita and Teresa are present, along with Francesco Missoni, Ottavio Junior, Marco, and Giacomo Missoni. Such a sweet way of showing off its amazing collection of knits, prints, and decadence. Makes me wish I was a Missoni . . .

Fab Ad: Marc Jacobs Fall '09

FabSugar — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 15:00:22 PDT

If you've ever wondered what models look like after partying the night away, peep at Marc Jacobs's Fall '09 campaign. The ad, shot by Juergen Teller, features Natasa Vojnovic, Ajuma Nasanyana, Kamila Filipcikova, and Olga Sherer looking glamorously tipsy wearing Marc's colorful '80s-inspired frocks. To add more emphasis to the throwback theme, the models are styled with opaque tights, teased hair, and makeup reminiscent of Madonna's heyday. It's a little kooky, a little cool - what do you think?

Fab Ad: Pamela Anderson For Vivenne Westwood

FabSugar — Mon, 26 Jan 2009 13:00:22 PST

Many were surprised when Vivienne Westwood announced her Spring muse, Pamela Anderson. But really, Westwood strikes me as a fly-by-the-seat-of-her-pants girl so I wasn't shocked - I was curious. You may recall Pamela was a muse for photographer David LaChapelle for a while, so we've seen her in quirky fashion situations. Shot by Juergen Teller in LA, the ads are a mess of bright light, Vivenne herself, and disorientation at random spots like the laundry mat and the middle of the street. The clothes are a bit difficult to focus on, but Pamela is definitely doing her thing for the camera. I quite like the beach background shot and Pamela and Vivenne are a fun duo. Are you feeling the fun in the sun?

Marc Jacobs Has Been Punk'd

FabSugar — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 07:00:22 PDT

Even if you love Marc Jacobs, you have to admit that his quirky ads, shot by photographer Juergen Teller, are just asking to be spoofed. That day has come via a website, TheNewEnthusiasm.com. Mr. Teller's Borg + McEnroe refers to the famed photog, as well as two champion tennis players, Björn Borg and John McEnroe.

Thomas Larsson and Greg Hart are the culprits who dressed up as tennis players and produced the fake ads. I knew it was safe to assume that Ashton Kutcher has nothing to do with it. The one that made me laugh the most is the man in the blond wig holding the brown MJ purse (left). Which, if any, do you think are the funniest?

Fab Ad: Marc by Marc Jacobs Spring 2008

FabSugar — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 15:00:22 PDT

Does Marc Jacobs have a new obsession? First Sri Lankan songstress M.I.A. DJed his runway after party last month, and now she appeared in the ad campaign for his Marc by Marc Jacobs diffusion line, so it sure seems like it.

Her colorful, funky on-stage style complements the bold background prints and vivid colors appearing in these Juergen Teller-shot ads. Overall, do they make you smile? Or do they hurt your eyes?

Sneak Peek: Victoria Beckham for Marc Jacobs

FabSugar — Thu, 10 Jan 2008 14:48:40 PST

Update: We have a couple more pics so take a lookie!

When I say sneak peek, I really do mean a peek: all you can see are Posh's legs! You never know what Marc Jacobs and his favorite ad campaign photographer Juergen Teller will come up with next, but this really takes the cake. Posh is being eaten by a MJ shopping bag . . . hilarious. This is only the first image in a series, so I'm excited to see what else rounds out the bunch. Hopefully we'll see more of Mr. Blackwell's worst-dressed lady VB next time around. Are you laughing?
