Critique: This is an image for high end fashion brand, Mugler. It displays fellow Canadian, Rick Genest modeling their clothing. I love the photo and furthermore I love the concept behind the advertising of this collection. It is mainly suits and other high end clothing and accessories. We usually associate that with just classy working businessmen. But, the contrast between this guy and the clothing is great. He has tattoos all over his body, mainly tattooing what's inside on the outside. For example, he tattooed a skull on his head. I like this idea and it is very interesting. It will grab the viewers attention easily. Again, I love the simplicity of the ad. Less is definitely more and fashion campaigns have been implementing this for a while and they have done it well.
