Gwendoline Christie for Vivienne Westwood Fall 2015 Ad Campaign

Posted on July 21, 2015

We wish there’d been a camera trained on our faces as we scrolled through these shots. By the end, we were screaming and crying.

We just have one question:

FOR FUCK’S SAKE, WHY?!?!?

Gwen, honey, were you forced into this? Was there blackmail or threats involved? It can’t be that you thought this would look interesting, can it? Because you don’t look interesting, dear. We’re sorry to tell you that you look dirty, sweaty and crazy, which are three descriptors most people – let alone most actresses – simply don’t want to hear about themselves.

Nevermind why Westwood wants a dirty, sweaty, crazy woman as the face of their product. We get the brand’s always had a punk rock aesthetic at its heart, but this doesn’t even strike us as punk. Weirdly, it strikes us as very anti-woman in a lot of ways. She literally looks like she’s being punished for something.
