The
Editor: Well I loved this one at first sight. Loved the visual continuation
Camilla achieved with the use of plaid. Loved the All-American preppies
at play. Loved the LA light, the vintage cars, the diners, the pompadours
on the boys. Loved Angela's milk-fed glow. So happy. So Fifties! So
All American... Mario gets it. He really does!
The
Photographer: He's very good but doesn't his work get a little repetitive
sometimes? I mean this works and it's the best Hilfiger campaign I've
ever seen but these pictures. I've seen them before as a Gap campaign
and aren't we getting tired of the gang thing. Gangs in Burberry. Gangs
in Gucci. Now gangs in Hilfiger. A little innovation would be good at
this point.
The
Agent: So go buy the latest issue of Purple then! This is America.
This is Hilfiger. This is an incredible campaign that made the whole
industry sit up and pay attention. I mean what's the difference between
Polo and Hilfiger? This is the difference. Hilfiger's people are fun!
This campaign communicates that and that's why it gets my vote as No
2.
The
It Girl: Plaids and fishnets. Who woulda thought. Great, great pictures.
Great styling. Wouldn't be caught dead in any of this stuff!
