Here’s the Material Girl at work, doing some dishes, eating (somewhat) pasta for Dolce & Gabbana’s Spring Summer 2010 ad campaign.
After reaching unknown Photoshop heights with Louis Vuitton’s campaign, Madonna’s making her best Monica Vitti impersonation for Steven Klein’s lens. (if she can’t act in movies, at least she’ll always have ad campaigns!) Black and white, vintage-y and cozy, the new Summer 2010 Dolce & Gabbana ads with Madonna make me forget it’s a fash-ad. Also her Madgesty sets a new standard for Photoshop-age-in-minus. What say you? (click through to see more images from the campaign)
UPDATE: More images have surfaced from Madonna’s Dolce & Gabbana campaign. You can see the new ones here. (via)

Not her legs, I don’t even think those are her teeth!
I wonder if she used a stunt double for the actual chores? ;)
As Madonna has gotten older I find that I like her and respect her for her musical longevity.
I do feel the clothes. It’s like a Spanish hot mama!
Firstly Kpriss I like to give you compliment because NY Magazine’s The Cut compared this shoot to the marvelous Anna Magnani. I didn’t see it. Monica Vitti? Yes, I do see it clearly….but it’s not Monica…
As Ellington I respect Madonna for her longevity too, last night I listened to “Ray of Light” after a long time and loved it.
I like the cardigan on the first photo.
Sorry, but there’s a lot of photoshop in these pictures. Just look at her arms!
@Daydreamer, Spanish hot mama’s only look like that on Almodovar films : )
Yeah, so much Photoshop she almost looks like a normal human being. Dare I say, a normal woman?
Actually it’s Madonna who’s having a weakness for Monica Vitti, so it was easy – but thank you, it’s always great to receive compliments from you! :*
Madonna is a machine. A money making machine. She has the nose for showbusiness and that’s all it takes (look at Gaga’s nose! She sniffed the bizarroid void in musicbiz and she filled it pronto – like she said once – when she was young and brunette and back at that underground club where she was performing behind her piano, she had to take her clothes off to get anyone’s attention… easy peasy).
Actually the campaign has a pleasant aesthetic, a normal feeling I’m happy to embrace when it comes to her Madgesty! Too long have I seen her punching and wearing box attire and playing the bad girl that right now, seeing her “act” like a normal person, I think it’s the best for her. Marketing and living wise. She’s been through a divorce, she has to reinvent herself for the people. And she’d better not re-do the Jesus cougar number again!
LOL! Right before I felt asleep last night, probably with a smile on my face, I remembered somthing. How could I’ve forgot about that? I’ve been “the bassplayer” (ahem) in a band called “Modesty Blaise”! That’s the name of classic cult film (1966) directed by Joseph Losey and Monica Vitti and Terence Stamp (GRRRRRRRR) in the lead! :)
Despite all the photoshop, nip/tucks and all this is the nicest photoshoot of Madonna I’ve seen in ages. Beats the LV campaign hands down!
S. I love most of Aldomóvar’s hot mamas!
Really, it looks more like Gillian Anderson in a wig than Madonna.
I love the styling (because I love Monica Vitti. THERE was a face to launch a thousand ships if ever there was)
I love Madonna this way – elegant, feminine and I also love her sporty and muscley. I’ve always found her image and fashion much more interesting than her music (Lady Gaga too for the same reasons) People don’t like Madonna’s sinewey arms but what’s the lady to do – let nature run its course and have a 50 year old’s naturally flabby triceps? Madonna will quite probably be buried with a dumbbell clasped in each hand
