it's impossible for anyones pussy to be shaved that smooth.

[mygoldenslumber]

no, it couldn't. but that isn't shaved, that is waxed. very, very, very waxed.

[handstil]

You mean very very photoshopped? ;)

I love TR but Tom Ford is done. D O N E.

[mygoldenslumber]

Maybe you don't think he is very current, but no one can deny the fact that he brought both Gucci and YSL back from the dead. Literally.

mmm I slightly disagree with Tom Ford being sexy. I have seen sexier men. Perhaps the receding hairline is a problem with me.
I like the second ad a lot more than the first one because the first one makes me think of a wax figurine in a museum, which is not the image I want when I'm looking at an ad for men's fragrance that's supposed to be sexy. Also, it looks like she has no nipples.

I like Terry Richardson though.

[clzair]

P.S. thanks for the dedication. I feel honored.

I can appreciate the skill and the aesthetic, but I hate the fashion industry because of what a majority of it stands for. I can't handle pretension and I don't dig on big egos much either, and it seems to me like most of the time, fashion fame is more about the name than the look, as long as you can keep people from being bored, you're set.

The advertisements are a natural progression of the use of blatant sexual imagery to sell products (the subliminal idea that the product will get you laid), which is an amazingly effective tool, but also completely lazy, stupid, and manipulative.

Tom Ford looks good because he can afford to look good.

This Terry Richardson fellow looks like a fun guy.

Terry Richardson's entire aesthetic is blatanat sexual imagery. Well, not always, but a lot of his work is. You have put way too much thought into these ads. And even though sex is always an advertisment tool, I have never seen any ad this provocative. Especially from an American designer. Oh, and all adversising is manipulative, that is the entire point.

I won't even get into the fashion industry portion of your comment because that would take way too long to type out. But usually whenever people shit on it, they really don't know anything about it at all, and don't understand that even the highest fashion designer is affecting your life whether you know it or not.

[lilchinky]

you just got that last thing about fashion designers affecting your life off of the devil wears prada.

[mygoldenslumber]

hahaha, you're right! that was a good scene.

really though, it's very true. i love how trends trickle down. like how metallics were all over the runway in balenciaga, dolce, etc a few years ago, and now you can buy gold this and gold that(yay because i am obsessed with gold) at urban outfitters, payless, and any other store you can think of. it's interesting.

If you moved hiw hairline a few inches forward he'd be da bomb.

[baby_snister]

the receding hairline doesn't bother me one bit, althought it'd look better if his hair was shorter.

nice stubble though.

[mygoldenslumber]

i knoooow. i love stubble!
