Title: 280SL photo in J Crew catalog
Post by: cospinner on March 09, 2008, 21:19:45
Just browsing through this March 2008 J Crew catalog, I found the Mercedes Benz SL blocked by some model.  Nice background though, the 1946 Kaufman house in Palm Springs.

I'm surprised their attorneys would allow so many Mercedes logos (or even one) to be so obvious in the photo. Usually, they try to obscure it, or at least minimize it.

As much as I love the pagoda, that model can block mine as long as she wants!

5'10" and 82 pounds is not my favorite look, but to each their own.  I'm surprised she can withstand the wind that's blowing her skirt.

I think her right hand is holding a stick that is holding up her skirt to make it look like the wind is blowing.

I seriously doubt a photographer would use a stick to simulate the wind. It wouldn't look natural enough.

The only sticks in that photo are the model's limbs.  :)

Something is holding up that skirt - - because her hair should be flying around in similar "fashion". :-)

Kinda looks like she is just dancing in place with her hands in the pockets as the camera catches the sway. Its artistic in a way.

I'm justa' saying....... if the wind is blowing, the flying hair (none there) would be an absolute indicator.

Whhhhhatevvvvvehh!!! - - - Remember the "Valley Girls"?
