AD CAMPAIGN: Liu Wen for ck Calvin Klein Accessories, Spring/Summer 2011+
Model: Liu Wen (Marilyn) & Sean O'Pry (VNY) Ad Campaign: ck Calvin Klein (Accessories), Spring/Summer 2011 Photographer: Fabien Baron Stylist: Emilie Kareh
With all the new crop of Asian male models, why not use them instead of a white one? So sick of seeing the Asian female-White-male combo everywhere. Being an Asian female, I like Asian men!

GORGE!! LW can do no wrong... I like to see Asian male model more often too! maybe theyre not ready to pair asian-asian couple in a campaign too risky of alienating mass customers. but hope it will happen someday. they can always do that and use the pairing for campaigns in Asia, where to spending powers are. but that being said, asian ppl still have very strong sentiment of Anglophilia. they prefer seeing white and buying their beauty/sex appeal.
oh, my man sean o pry! i didn't even think of the asian girl/caucasian guy thing. would you have complained if it were an asian guy and a white girl? at least godfrey has LV!!
I love Liu Wen! But I dont think the CK ads have done justice to her beauty. Ive seen her looked way better in editorials. E.g Picture #2. She is much better looking than that.

ReplyDeleteJust IMHO.
Liu wen is too masculine looking in this. not good. Sean O'Pry is gorgeous as always.
ReplyDeleteI agree - wish they'd used another POC male - but great pic!
