Tom Ford’s Fall 2011 campaign was a lesson in the opulence of bold colors, furs and textures. It was rich and decadent for the eyes; dramatic and vibrant are just two words I would use to describe it. The models looked as if they could walk right out of the ads and down the street of fabulousness. Red, green and purple unapologetically took centerstage, as will the label’s loyal clientele. These images will appeal to the daring diva inside us all.

Oscar de la Renta debuted his Fall 2011 campaign that stars model Karlie Kloss.  The ad grabs you at first sight with color, motion and contrast; it was lensed by photographer Craig McDean.  The juxtaposition of the refined pieces against commonplace everdyay items was genius.  Everything came together for that shot- the great styling, the movement of her hair and the subtle angles of her body.  The high-waisted black-and-white tweed suit with the flirty hemline and bolero jacket was perfection.

Rachel Weisz is the face of Jasmin Noir by Bulgari, and the fragrance’s new campaign has debuted.  The actress is ever faithful to the scent as she poses with only a strategically placed bottle, and the brand’s jewels.  There is something vulnerable, yet alluring about these images.  It lies in her expression.  They played up the texture in her pillow against the shininess of the other props adding balance and depth.

DKNY debuted its Fall 2011 campaign with New York City as its backdrop; it captured the essence of the Big Apple.  I spied fur and leather alongside tweed and wool.  Stripes are definitely on-trend for the autumn season.  My favorite, the pink and orange look with the mustard colored cape.  That outfit says chic in multiple languages.  The ads struck a nice balance of  brights and neutrals, leaving it up to your mood.

The new Marc by Marc Jacobs campaign for Fall 2011 stars Elle Fanning in warm rustic colors.  The actress’ wind-swept hair and oxfords paired with socks depicted the autumn season in full effect.
