Dakota Fanning for Marc Jacobs Oh, Lola! Fragrance — Behind the Scenes
So here is the pretty campaign for the new Marc Jacobs fragrace, Oh, Lola! starring the lovely and talented young actress Dakota Fanning. That's Dakota, the elder sister of Elle. Wearing a Marc by Marc Jacobs dress with a divine scalloped hem and all sorts of polka dot prettiness. Just so lovely.
And while I get that the name is Lola, which is a sort of play on Lolita, I still have two questions to put out there. Of all the beautiful images that they shot, why did they go for the option that it the most phallic? On a 17 year old girl. And why use a 17 year old girl, and cute, pretty pink styling and then headline the campaign, "The New Fragrance for Women"? I don't really understand that. Anyone?
Anyhoodle, as I said, it is delightfully pretty and Dakota had a blast wearing the dress she loved from the runway show and having her hair and make up done. Who wouldn't. It is always a treat to be fussed over and put in gorgeous clothes. We do it here at O Magazine for our real ladies fashion stories every month. And every so often I get to have a go myself. So my message to you all is, if you ever get an opportunity to  appear in a magazine story, snatch it with both hands as it really will be a lovely experience. Just like Dakota. Just make sure you know how it is going to be presented!
