Fab Ad: Maggie Gyllenhaal for Agent Provocateur

I have to admit that when I first heard that actress Maggie Gyllenhaal was going to replace Kate Moss as the face of Agent Provocateur, I was less than thrilled. I just couldn't get the image of Maggie with her little daughter Ramona out of my head long enough to replace it with her as a saucy lingerie model. But now that the ads have been released, I am pleasantly surprised. I suppose deep down I knew Maggie had what it took because of her sassy role in the Secretary. By looking at these sexy ads, you'd never guess Maggie is a mom who loves to lay low in jeans and flats. I guess that's a good thing! What do you think?

    She has looks from another era, this is perfect for her. I love the shot of her in the head wrap. Gorgeous.

    Super impressive for a normally laid-back mom Shocked Kudos to Agent Provocateur for choosing someone a bit different. It worked.

    Wow!
    I am really proud of Agent Provocateur for chausing this girl instead of Kate Moss because this girl is REAL. She has some curves, she isn't 20 pounds underweight, she has boobs and hips and wow, i love it!

    Huzzah for a real woman with some meat! She looks closer to the other more anonymous models in their catalog.

    She looks totally fab, too bad they couldn't put a different backdrop for that shot other than those suburbia blinds with fantop and curtains. Looks like a house decorated in 1990. Bleh for this type of ad.

    Ughh..I like her as an actress. But she just isn't doing it for me in these ads...two thumbs down.

    I love the retro hair, but—don't hate me—I'm not crazy about Maggie for AP. It just doesn't feel like a good fit to me.

    I think she's pretty smokin' here, but I think they went overboard on her make-up. Just a touch.

    I don't feel like she is a good choice for this. It's not working for me. My initial reaction was also surprise because she is a mom, but so is Kate Moss Puzzled

    I love her look! It's so nice to see a lingerie model who's not super-skinny. She looks great, with Marilyn Monroe-esque curves!

    She looks so hot, but in a very classy way. I always though she had sort of a vintage look with her dramatic lips and luscious pale skin. And Damn: If I looked like that and I had a 10 month old baby, I would be pretty darn proud!

    I don't like the Dita look on her. Its too harsh. She looks better with lighter hair. The concepts are great, but they need to work better with the model's features. Overall very nice shoot.

    Fab, I don't know why you doubted Ms. Maggie. Maybe because she's so freshly post baby. She's got the sexy low down look to her. I was not surprised by how lovely these photos came out, but I am a little jealous that I don't look that hot.

    Yeah, I am just not feeling it in these ads. I don't like the way she looks. The makeup is too heavy for her face, and it just makes all the shots look awkward. =(

    I'm not too sure I get this casting. I like Maggie Gyllenhaal in movies because she's so, er... normal looking! Which is a nice way of saying she's not exactly drop dead gorgeous, and this totally works for her as an actress. But not s much as a model. I liked her in the Miu Miu ads she did a few years back, but there was something about the more candid style of those pics which suited her looks more than these shots. They're, I dunno, a bit much?

    Nah, they need someone else for this. I don't like Kate Moss either, I've never found her attractive, but Maggie is really not attractive or sexy.

    A woman who is "normal" looking and has a better body IMO is Kate Winslet. Someone in that vain would have done it for me. Maggie just isn't pretty at all. No offense.

    I agree with many of the people here... Maggie is not hot and putting her in ads like this highlights this fact. They need someone REALLY hot to pull this off.

    I do not find her pretty at all! Besides she looks boring and shouldn't even be taking the places ( or roles ) of Katie Holmes and Kate Moss!

    Velvetavalon- no, you are definitely not the only one. It is a strange double standard I feel about this ad. It is refreshing that AP went with a non-typical face for their new ads, but, at the same time- I need someone a bit more... typical. Maggie is so unattractive that she ruins the ads. Her body isn't banging enough to detract from her face, basically. And the lingerie is meh.

    The good side of these pics is taht she looks confident about herself even if she's not model-skinny. That makes her attractive. (No man like women wining because they think they're fat, right?)

    But... still, those pictures scream "Get a room!" to me. I definitely wouldn't want to see my mother like that and I do not like to watch other people in underwear either.
