A Stroke of Genius: The Simpsons in Bazaar

As you all know by now: I love a fashion surprise. Thank you Harper's Bazaar for conceiving something so brilliantly bizarre as this spread in the August issue with the all-American family soon to be on the silver screen, The Simpsons. Illustrated by The Simpsons layout artist, Julius Preite, these fun-filled pages feature the cast in collections and designers from the Fall RTW collections with a special cameo from my favorite all-time supermodel - guess who?!

My favorite bits include the ladies lounging in sultry Versace, Marge's hats, and the ever-bazaar Viktor & Rolf. What do you think? Brilliant? Bizarre? Or, brilliantly bizarre?

    I love this. Brilliant. But you're missing another spread Fab. The one with Marge, Linda and her two sisters holding arms and walking through the street of Paris, while Homer is struggling to carry all the luggage behind them.

    This is quite original. Can anyone think of any other fashion magazines that have used cartoons in fashion spreads before? I certainly can't.

    The marketing for this movie is unlike anything I have ever seen before... And genius! I have a feeling that Simpsons-mania may be making a comeback! They haven't missed a single demographic!

    Cartoon characters modeling? Hilarious. Odd choice of cartoon,
    though... I would have gone w/ anime.

    OH MY GOSH!
    I think that this is a totally brilliant idea!
    In a bizarre way!
    I particularly like the Chanel and Versace spread.

    wow, their PR people deserve a huge raise for the amazing job they've done of promoting the Simpsons movie. It seems like i didn't hear anything about this until July started and then BAM! it was everywhere but in really unique and funky ways. love it!
