Some of my favourite print ads at the moment…

I think I am probably in the minority because I do hear many complaints about magazines being heavily cluttered with pages of advertising but I actually love looking at them, particularly if they are two-page spread advertisements. They are candy to my eyes and often a source of inspiration, shaping my vision of what I think works effectively and looks good. Here are some of my favourites at the beginning of 2012. Do you like looking at fashion print ads too?

LOUIS VUITTON

YVES SAINT LAURENT

DOLCE & GABBANA

BURBERRY

GUCCI

PRADA

BOTTEGA VENETA

RALPH LAUREN

TOD’S

MULBERRY

DIOR & FENDI

My two favourites from these would have to be PRADA and LOUIS VUITTON.

I L.O.V.E the D&G ad the most! It’s so atmospheric… plus I love the wicker handbag ;)

Great post!

I really like the Louis Vuitton ad, it’s just a shame I don’t actually like any of their accessories! The clothes are nice but does anybody actually buy them apart from Madonna?

I do too. It’s SO Italian – I love how all the males wear suits. Even the little boy.

Good question – I don’t think I personally know anyone who buy LV clothes. Nearly every other girl has an LV bag though it seems!

Me neither, and I know a lot of people who buy designer clothes, but never LV. True so many girls have the bags…although I think they just look tacky :/ I really don’t like excessive branding
