The Best Line in the New York Times...Ever
I've ranted here and there about how fashion ads these days are a bit...boring.  Well, I was reading this New York Times article, "When Is a Fashion Ad Not a Fashion Ad?" where Cathy Horyn says about Marc Jacobs' ads:

You can’t help wondering, looking at a decade’s worth of ads, why more designers can’t produce similarly engaging and original narratives. One explanation is they don’t have Mr. Jacobs’s degree of confidence.

I think that is probably the best two lines I've read in NYT about the fashion industry...ever.  You would think that in an industry where creativity is the name of the game that we would at the very least have equally creative ads.

Is that a praised ad? It stinks!

Hi Ella,

No, that's just a random ad I found. At least it makes you say, "Huh?" We either remember the bad ads or the very good ones, but everything else goes through one eye and out the other...ha!

It's not the most "beautiful" and romantic ad but it definitely stands out and is artistic in its nature. Love the one with Victoria Beckham!

Hi Eugene,

Yes, my favorites are the ones with Victoria Beckham. They really captured attention with those ads.
