Just when you think there are enough makeup lines out there, Dolce & Gabbana have added a makeup collection to their roster. Who did they pick to be their new model do debut their collection, Scarlett Johansson!
“Scarlett is sure of herself,” Gabbana said. “She’s a beautiful girl, but she’s really easygoing. She is very Dolce & Gabbana.” (stylenews.peoplestylewatch.com) Inspired by the colours of the Mediterranean and their childhood memory of their mother's lipstick scent, fragrance was an important element in the creation of their makeup line. “
We wanted to create makeup with a scent. Domenico and I remember when we were children and opened our mother’s handbags — the scent of her lipstick trailed out. I observed that when women open makeup, they smell it first,” said Gabbana. (stylenews.peoplewatch.com) The collection will launch in Spring'09 and prices will range from $20-$59.
What are your thoughts on this ad campaign? Honestly, I'm not a fan of Scarlett's pic above. I also think I would've preferred a "professional" model as opposed to seeing another ad campaign by an actress. Is their a shortage of models in this world? I highly doubt it.

I don't like this particular shot of her - that nude listick washes her out.
ReplyDeleteIts not a very flattering shot of her. I read that D&G were trying to mimick a Marilyn Monroe image in this campaign. Just seems like to much "inspirational" ideas went into this line instead of focusing on one idea.
ReplyDeleteI agree, I love Scarlet but I am getting sick of just seeing the same actresses selling different products.
ReplyDeleteI am also not crazy about the lipstick.
