Michael Phelps takes Louis Vuitton to the Loo
Forget Ryan Lochte and all changes, it is none other than Michael Phelps has landed the first post-Olympic campaign for luxury brand Louis Vuitton. The new Louis Vuitton ad shot by Annie Leibovitz and debuted at the end of last week.
The retro-esque images show a very Phelps lounging topless in a stand-alone bathtub style 1950th Carved into her tight black Speedo, goggles over his wet hair and shaved legs rest to accompany them on the sides of the pan, it is. His Louis Vuitton bag beside him on the marble floor The classic LV bag is unzipped and opened with a crumpled towel overflowing into the arms reach. The casual look of the display and put an accent luxury bag with ease.
Some argue that the shot would have been in a locker room in the light bath. However, we disagree. Scattered locker rooms for athletes foot, sweat and luggage and sports bags, not exactly scream luxury fashion accessories. The choice to have an oversized Phelps take half naked in a bathtub with his companion LV for a very wet new campaign.
