Chris Evans, Rachel Evan Wood and Frank Miller for Gucci.


Gaspard Ulliel and Martin Scorsese for Chanel Bleu.

Clearly a trend is abound. The merging of high fashion with quality directing seems natural. After all, we see the stars strut the silver screen in these duds. They then promote them. It was only a matter of time before directors were drawn into the mix. A cynic, I'm sure, would suggest that the lines between advertising and film have been blurred. Maybe more diplomatically, we can suggest that the lines between disciplines of art have been blurred. While in the UK, we are graced with BT's incredibly confusing advertisements that seemingly depict an incredibly trouble household, I welcome some more polished efforts, as those above.
