It's a bird... It's a plane... It's... Linda! Linda Evangelista, that is. She's saving non-couture brands, one photo shoot at a time. Evangelista is the supermodel to the super stars - Prada, Hermes, Dolce & Gabbana, YSL, Chanel, Escada, Oscar de la Renta... oh yes, and Ann Taylor. In 2005, Evangelista was the face of the Ann Taylor makeover, and now, Talbots is seeking out her wattage to spare yet another bourgeoisie brand from the brink. It's a gorgeous campaign. Kuddos to Talbots' (and to Linda, who at 45, is actually the age of Talbots customers!).

Just goes to show that classics never go out! Love that red! And Evangelista is such an icon to me.

be still my sweet southern heart! linda is my absolute favorite supermodel! so glad she's still doing what she does best! and who'd have thunk i'd want to shop at talbots now? xoxo
Go Talbots.
Sadly, I once had a leopard sheath dress, which I got rid of after someone called me Pebbles and asked where was Bam Bam.
However, I still have my faux-fur collars, which also featured heavily in the new Talbot's catalog.
I may be biased (she was incredibly rude to me once in my retail-working-youth)... but i can't get past the fact that she can't seem to take a photograph without her mouth hanging open.
Dear Anonymous,
Geez, and you never got over it? Get a life. We all have our bad days.
She looks so incredibly stunning!
Great images -- I love Linda! :) It makes me want to check out Talbots. She did her job well!

You know I just said to a friend watch for Talbots trying to make a comeback. Great ad campaign.
didn't she went on a hiatus for a while? but love this...she never ages!
