Hollywood glamorpuss Megan Fox is fronting the current crop of commercials for Korean handbag brand MetroCity.
These commercials aren’t anywhere near as cheesy as so many of the Asian ads we’ve seen Hollywood A-Listers in. But they’re also not as innovative as many of the fashion spreads we see in the Western world.
It’s been a while since I’ve seen Megan Fox looking so natural. Her usual blood red pout is replaced with a much paler pink, and her ebony hair is soft and loose. Perhaps she should try this pared back appearance on the next red carpet! Personally I think it’s a much more feminine look than the darkly dramatic face she shows in the new Armani beauty commercials.
Fox’s uncharacteristically muted appearance ensures she doesn’t steal the focus from MetroCity’s classic handbags. In fact, these advertisements may be just what MetroCity needs to gain new fans in the United States. The label is largely unknown in the West, but casting Megan Fox in its spring/summer 2012 commercials is great way to attract new eyeballs.
Do you like Megan Fox’s natural appearance in the MetroCity commercials, or would you prefer to see her vamping it up?
