More M in LV

Madonna is dressing up in Louis Vuitton once again for a brand new round of ads for the fashion house.

One of the ads shows the Queen of Pop in the same getup she wore to the Costume Institute Gala at the Met last month.

Oh, and all of them make her look like a cartoon. Somebody needs to go to Photoshoppers Anonymous.

Update: OK, OK – so the new campaign was not based on like, a Barbie doll.

Louis Vuitton designer Marc Jacobs was so happy about the first campaign featuring Madonna that he was eager to do an encore, but quickly indicated, “I want something completely different,” said an LV spokesperson.

With this shooting orders in mind, the look photographer Steven Meisel went for actually includes a dash of Tamara de Lempicka and a soupçon of Man Ray for color-drenched images by with a surreal edge, thanks to the beyond-generous use of solarization, a technique of overexposure first perfected by Ray.


And I felt like I’d gotten schooled when I read that.
