Gwyneth Paltrow is Tod’s Leading Lady

Gwyneth Paltrow is Tod’s Leading Lady

Check out Gwyneth Paltrow’s new ad campaign for Italian label Tod’s for their autumn/winter 2008-9 collection.

According to UK’s Vogue, Mario Testino photographed the campaign in Capri last month. The 36-year-old actress is said to evoke a “uber luxurious, outdoors-y life of a beautiful Italian aristocrat from the heady days of the jet-set era.”

Gwyneth effortlessly embodies the spirit of the all American woman with timeless elegance and modern flair - the perfect representation of the Tod’s woman,” says creative director Derek Lam. “And, of course, beyond her impeccable style, she is an artist whose body of work I greatly admire.”

And apparently, Gwyn has a film short for Tod’s premiering in Cannes!

She’s gorgeous. Stunning. And I love love love that bag!

re: Photoshop…all ads and magazine photos are. It’s no mystery and nobody is above it. It’s just a fact. Although, I sure wish I had somebody to do that to all my photos!

They did a gorgeous job but she also looks a lot older than her actual age. She looks like the mom of the Gwyn who was at Cannes.

Maybe she’s supposed to look like a Barbie doll?

To me she looks very Grace Kelly-ish. I like it :) She’s not more photoshopped than most model, I think.

I wouldn’t have even recognized her!

I thought it was Juliette from Lost.

Doesn’t she look like a blonde Celine Dion?

who the **** is that supposed to be???

i think it’s a step up for her, she isnt that pretty. At least here, she has pretty hair.

It looked like Heidi Klum to me. lol!

She is beautiful and classy, so is the bag.

Too square faced.

She is trying to be G Kelly.
but fails.

The commercial already premiered in Cannes on Monday.

I think they made her look like a man.

Is there a bigger pic? It’s pretty but it’s a PH disaster. It looks like a painting the way they retouched it so much.

Who is that?

To me, this looks more extensively retouched than your average magazine cover.

It doesn’t look like Gwyneth but the hair is great!

Love Her!!!
She has fab. style and is pure class.

Gwyn looks like a wax figure.

Im not liking the picture at all.
They could have made her look younger and sexier but classy at the same time.

I’m tired of seeing pictures of this tranny

She is suppose to be outdoorsy? She is fake, fake personality..everything..

Her lips are no longer thin as blade. It’s funny that almost all white women in HW have thicker lips and bigger and perkier breast as they age.

this ad campaign is sooo fab.

She would fit right in at Madam Tussuad’s.

Yes, GREAT photoshop job.

It’s the ONLY picture I’ve seen of her that I actually like.

What’s she selling next?

I love JP Tods’s . Love that bag. She’a actually looking good these days. I think her getting older will make her look more sophisticated. She’s aging nicely. I just wish her attitude would age nicely also.

Now this is what an ad should look like. It’s pure art It kind of reminds me of Ralph Lauren ads. . Nobody wants ugly pap pics.

The resulting pictures from the photo shoot that was posted here not long ago. Gwyneth looks lovely.

Damn, they airbrushed the hell out of her!

jeebus. she looks 65.

But that’s funny that Tod considers her ‘all-american,’ - Fishyth hates America, and lives in the UK. Pretty hilarious.

she looks like a boring person…

people hate her because she’s brad’s ex. people hate her because she was brutally honest about her opinion of how immature her country of origin can be.

It doesn’t look like Gwyn at all..she must be using Mimi’s retoucher.

No matter how much photodshop is done for Gwenyth she is still fug.

Wow….totally old Hollywood style, very classy. She reminds me of a young Grace Kelly.

Pretentious.

Is.

The. Big. P. On. Her. Forehead.

“She reminds me of a young Grace Kelly.”
———————————
Pfff. In your wildest crack-dreams!

not a fan, but looks good. She can have that aristocratic look like a Grace Kelly type when she wants to. As long as she doesn’t open up her mouth and you don’t hear her whiney nasal voice. I’d rather listen to chalk squeeking on a board.

Nobody can look like late Princess of Monaco Grace! She is one of a kind….

Her own daughters, her mother, her sister don’t even look like Grace Kelly.

If you are calling Gwyneth classy, just because she finally covered her legs, you got the point.

Lovely classy lady, yeah, very Grace Kelly.

She’s FAB.

She looks like she is 50!

Gorgeous, fresh. Gwyneth carries this look very well. Love it. No idea why people are being so spiteful, maybe they’ve bunked off school or something.

What did they do to her? She looks like a tranny version of Grace Kelly.

Kudos to the Photoshop operator. He/she did a great job creating this illusion.

yeah that ad is uber photoshopped.

I’m really starting to hate her bcuz she finally looks good AND made hella money off Ironman. I wonder how she was able to shrink those huge ass moles she used to have all over her face?

WTF. I thought all these big-mouthed movie stars liked to wax on about global warming and going green, then they turn around and pimp themselves out for multi-million dollar ad campaigns that portray the “uber-luxurious…jet-set days.” Apparently, even though they blather on about the evils of capitalism, they are blind to the economic catastrophe happening around them.

It’s hard to say why I don’t get excited with is woman. She is beautiful alright, but her movie personas are so hohum, with maybe one exception - Shakespear In Love.

I would like to see her in controversial roles. Hohom roles are for Jennifer Aniston.

Meh. She’s average looking. Always the same bland face with Gwyneth.

She looks absolutely gorgeous! The haters are getting ridiculous. Go to your Angelina worship threads and quit hating on this woman who is far superior in terms of looks!

Its pleasure to sent my simple words from my inword heart. Im 18 years of age n now m studying graduation. Actually m from INDIA. I had saw most of the films of my fan GWYNETH PALTROW. From the films I had a big exploration on SHAKESPEAR IN LOVE. If I get a chace eor sharing only a single happy with my lovely fan den I will absolutely thank to my Lord. May the moment be with me.
