CULTURE: The Illustrated Supermodel

Needled points to a (faux) video of supermodel Gisele Bündchen being (virtually) tattooed from head to toe. Apparently, the video is part of an ad campaign for a brand of flip-flops Bündchen has designed.

Obviously, the supermodel's body art is not the work of a tattoo machine -- no one smiles that much when needles are poking them -- but the video is artistically done and suits my "high brow" sensibilities (I have to redeem myself after all the porn links). The decorated Gisele is part of an ad campaign for Ipanema sandals. The Ipanema site also has a page called Tattoo Log, a gallery of tattoos submitted by the public. Sadly none of them are as good as the fake ones in the ad. Glaringly absent from that gallery is the Gisele portrait tattoo that one crazy fan had inked on his chest. I'd like to see the video for that meeting.

At the end when she's covered with tattoos and wearing just the sandals, that is fucking hot.

Should be obvious why I'm a member here.

Cindy Crawford and Yasmin La Bon.

Sure, they may have great personalities, but I can only go from appearance in this instance.

Hmm... this ad irritates me a bit. I'm not sure I can put exactly why into words just now... It probably has something to do with the fact that I doubt she would ever get any noticable tattoos because the fashion industry would no longer want to use her, even if the tattoos were as clearly beautiful as the fake ones in the advert. It feels like she's using a new trend to distract but ultimately sell something. I know this is how advertising works in general, but unless the mainstream modelling industry is going to start accepting heavily tattooed women (or even women with any tattoos that are noticable and can't be easily removed) I think it will bug me more than most adverts that exploit a rising trend.
