It has come to this: A Gucci ad.

Well, here’s where the world is… I’m posting a link to a YouTube Gucci ad.

All I can really say about it is that it does effectively capture the look and cheesiness of 60’s/70’s TV sci-fi, in particualr Star Trek, Lost In Space and Space: 1999 (which the ad uses the theme music from). Well… that and I can add that it’s appropriate in that it makes fashion models into effective old-skool SF aliens, because they pretty much look like freaks anyway.

Honestly, what is the purpose of an ad like this? Anybody want to spend money to dress up like that, outside of cosplaying or starring in a fan film?
