Fashion house Prada has released a new ad featuring Tom Holland as its new brand spokesperson. In an ironic twist, the commercial shows the actor taking off his Prada wear… which makes us want to buy it more?
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Prada recruited the Spider-Man: No Way Home star to act as the face (and body) of its Spring/Summer 2022 line.

Photographer David Sims lent his eye to the campaign, which also features the aforementioned commercial of Holland stripping down. “Dress. To Undress. To Dress. Prada,” the actor, ever-cheerful, says in the video.
How about we take this to the next level?

If we looked like him, we’d be cheerful all the time, too. Whatever it says that Prada and Sims think showing Holland removing the advertised brand will somehow drive more customers is a quandary indeed. Then again, do we have to really think that hard?
Watch.

it doesn’t matter that he has poor fashion sense.
He’s hot clothed or not clothed.

You can’t see much of either the clothes or Holland (he has no lips) so meh to the entire thing. Interesting idea for an ad, but this wasn’t well executed.

Since when do fashion (or fragrance) ads make any sense or even visually highlight the product?

Did I miss something? I didn’t see him take off ‘all’ of his clothes.
