Madonna is queen and everybody knows that. But what was super interesting about this week’s sADurday series is how Dolce and Gabbana depicted Madonna as a housewife, quite far from her reality of fame. Perhaps D&G was trying to fit luxury into wifely duties?
and this isn’t even all the ads that D&G published in 2010.
I mean, what do you all think?
are they glamorizing wives in a way that seems fake?

Hey hey Saturday!
This week we are bringing back Coco Chanel x Lily Allen in the Fall 2009 Coco Cocoon advertisement! What I absolutely love about this series is how playful and spunky Allen is. She brings something more to the table more than just her self for celebrity branding. She gives the bags character and spice, and makes me even want one….an ad well done I think!
and if you want to see them all linked up:
what do you think? do you want a coco cocoon now?
Hey there Wednesday!
I hope everyone’s humpday hasn’t been as yawn-y and sigh-y as mine but if it has, I hope by the end of this post you’ve at least smiled a little to knock out some of those yucky emotions.
baby smiley Kate Moss!!
this moment is so relatable.
“pahaha. oops!” us too Alexa!
such a genuine Rosie
and Behati!
and last but certainly not least, the ever beautiful Marilyn Monroe!
My favorite sound is the sound of people laughing. It’s so infectious and sometimes, before you know it, you’re laughing with them! This is one of my “get happy instantly” videos and I hope you find joy in it too:
stay happy – even on humpy humpdays!

I am so excited to share this week’s memorable monday with you all:
Entitled Néo Belphégor, Mikael Jannson shot the ever amazing Freja Beha Erichsen for the September 2010 issue of Vogue Paris. The results are so:
What’s not memorable in this editorial? Freja Beha is dressed stunningly in designers like Dior, Dolce and Gabbana, and Alexander Wang, and what’s more she’s in action with a shining black panther in the darks of the set.
xx
Here at thatinblack we’ve decided to ad another series onto our weekly features: the sADurday series where we’ll feature some of our favorite black and white ads from past & present.
just to remind you, or if you didn’t know, we also do
Memorable Mondays where we dig up some great monochrome editorials,
Truth Tuesdays where we feature some of the fashion industry’s greatest quotes,
and Famous Fridays showing off celebrities that have all black everything outfits in their wardrobe as well.
so to get back on our first sADurday series, we’re coming in strong with Alexander Wang’s Fall/Winter 2009’s Ad Campaign featuring Tasha Tilberg photographed by Daniel Jackson
we love how in this ad we get more than one of Tasha Tilberg’s rad personality in each photo!
come back next Saturday for our next sADurday series!

Hello Monday!
Today we’re starting off the week with none other than Agyness Deyn – model, actress, and singer- shot by Hedi Slimane (yes we’re featuring her again! check out our first post on her here). In March 2011 for Vogue China, Deyn showed punky angst and mystery wearing Burberry, Balmain, and Alexander Wang.
I think what Slimane does best is capturing the essence of her model and letting their personalities shine through the clothes and photographs. I mean, what better model is there than Deyn to show off black and white punk magic?
(maybe Freja Beha? stay tuned for next week!)
found these over pinterest and we are just in love with all the all black inspiration.
so we had a to do a post! just because….
do you have something to share?

A supermodel, and rightfully so.
