I suppose I’m echoing the sentiments of many others on this post. I think the goal of showing such a strong contrast is a very interesting idea but the cartoons themselves were very distracting to me. I didn’t even look at the clothes! I suppose on a positive note it definitely captures your attention… not something you usually see flipping through the pages of your favorite fashion magazine.

I tend to agree with Molly.

Some of us are forgetting that Stella’s line is vegan, so it would make sense to use a Bambi theme as opposed to a Little Red Riding Hood theme (if you recall, the wolf is killed in the end). Additionally, using live animals would go against Stella’s ethics as an animal rights advocate, so obviously that’s out of the question.

I really love how natural she looks – messy hair, no make up. It’s really beautiful!

This thing is so weird… beauty comes from expression within some sort of confinement not expression that’s so everywhere you can’t tell where it is. This has no boundaries.

i don’t like it at all. for one, it takes away from the clothes and secondly, it looks like an ad for disney. FAIL.

I think it clashes too badly. Perhaps if the colors of the cartoons melded better with the clothes, or if they were all real animals. To me it is just very anachronistic.

I’m not sure if it was the September issue, but there was one ad campaign in Vogue that was Little Red Riding Hood inspired. I thought that was awesome =D

I feel the campaign and the Disney characters are evoking two totally different vibes. They just don’t go together. And like Amber said, Bambi and the other characters are very familiar to us and are therefore bound to grab our attention first. I just don’t think it was the greatest idea….
