No Donna... there was a pic of her holding a handbag.
herestoyou - June 23, 2008 04:21 PM (GMT)
Whew! That model was wearing a rather *short* dress there-lol. For some reason, I don't see the pic, but it asks for you to register......I'll figure it out......

Christine M - June 23, 2008 04:39 PM (GMT)
hmm....that is really interesting!! :unsure: It was there. I registered and still not able to see it. :(
Christine M - June 23, 2008 04:49 PM (GMT)
Here is a very small picture. I tried to enlarge it, but it didn't work. Don't understand why we can't see it now in Elle. Does anyone want to take a guess as to why?

(I got the small print when I googled "paradis" in the news.)

Thank to VIT for this link--it's a cropped pic but larger:

Thanks for the pictures, you girls are great detectives.
FANtasticJD - June 23, 2008 09:39 PM (GMT)
Here's the full pic, still small but... Does anyone else think the clothes look like some vintage flight attendant uniform? or maybe something from the old Star Trek series? I grabbed it from the ElleUK site.
60somethingdepp fan - June 23, 2008 09:53 PM (GMT)
Thanks for the larger picture. I do like the bag, it looks big but wonder why her shirt clashes . No reflection on Van, she is doing and wearing what they tell her, but I have never gotten the fashion photos.
Christine M - June 23, 2008 10:05 PM (GMT)
First, I would like to know how you got that picture. :lol: I could not get the link to work and I just tried it again. I even registered!! :banghead:

I can see how you get that impression. I watched the fashion show video on Youtube and the majority of the styles look like the one Vanessa has on. I think the way the picture is positioned it looks that way. It could be the colors too.
Thanks for posting the larger photo.
edited for clarification.

Thanks so much FAN and Mim!E for the pics! This is from the Vogue link above which explains the look a little:

| Shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggot in LA, the singer embodies the "powerful independence" of Miuccia Prada's sport-centric collection in a surrealist and kaleidoscopic series of images - which sit in stark contrast to the dark theatricality of Kirsten Dunst in her starring role in the house's spring/summer 2008 campaign. |
Think they're going for a sporty look!

The clothes and accessories seem to go well with the red hair, even if the items aren't the same shade of green as each other. Very elegant.
herestoyou - June 24, 2008 06:59 AM (GMT)
Interesting-one article states that it's going for the sporty look--here's one that says it's the horse jockey inspired look. I think I've also read one that mentioned a "scuba" look........

:blink: Jockey look? The first thing I thought was Bowling. Then again I thought the purse was a bowling bag :lol: I kept seeing Hanson from 21 Jump Street yelling "Another Slamarino!" :shistle

It seems all the fashion mags can't decide what look it is either-lol! I looked at a gallery of the collection and to me, it's the scuba look :P
I'd like to see any other Vanessa pics from this shoot......guess they did it while she was in LA......

They kids have been in school there this year until just a couple of weeks ago, so I guess she's had plenty of time for the photo shoot. ;) Wonder when we will see more pics??
Mim!E - June 24, 2008 11:38 PM (GMT)
Other photos will be available in August in a major monthly magazine (Vogue ?)
Credit not very reliable :lol:

Actually alot of the fashion designers don't match things. If you look through a fashion magazine you will see that they put all different colors together. But there is black in the shirt and black on the purse. It's just a darker green on the purse than on the shirt. Then anything next to Van will look big because she is a tiny person. (Most Chanel purses she modeled always looked big but in reality they weren't that big.) But then there is also the angle at which the pic was taken. To me the purse isn't that attractive. Reminds me of a vintage bowling ball bag.

Fabulous!! woohoo I do like that photo. From what I've seen so far I think Vanessa really makes the new collection appealing.
Thanks Mim!E for posting the photo. :snoopy
I'm sure there will be more. ;)
Moonlight - June 28, 2008 10:49 AM (GMT)
Hey, great, these pictures look awesome! Christine M, I certainly agree, Vanessa makes the whole collection quite interesting. However, I for one would never wear it, cause I din't like the style of it.
Like that last pic the most. Very nice. :thumbsup
Thanks for posting!

One of Vanessa's ads is in the US Vanity Fair out now according to VPInfo. Here's a scan of the ad thanks to BeautifulMidnight atVPInfo. Apparently it's the VF with Blake Lively(?) on the cover?

Thanks Donna and everyone else who posted the updates of VP and Miu Miu. Very, very glamorous!!
Karen - July 17, 2008 12:38 PM (GMT)
THanks Donna, those ads are great!
Rose Sparrow - July 17, 2008 02:14 PM (GMT)
Liked the handbags and sunglasses but I'd never be able to walk in thse shoes! :lol:
She does look stunning in those ads!
:thanks Donna!
herestoyou - July 17, 2008 04:10 PM (GMT)
I know there's mixed reviews out there, but considering the style of the clothes, I think the pics are rather edgy and creative.

Well bottom line I think the clothes are not great, but that's not the model's fault. I agree that I think the photographer did a great job staging the photographs. We are used to seeing her in Chanel. MiuMiu isn't Chanel. I think the ads themselves are well done, well photographed and visually attractive, and Vanessa looks great.
nurseanne8 - July 17, 2008 10:48 PM (GMT)
I agree the photos are great and Van looks the part but in my world I would not see these fashions-even on the younger set. :) :shistle Anne r
