In pictures:the Burberry photo campaign with Emma Watson turns into a fiasco

Great Britain - For its Spring/Summer 2010 advertising campaign, Burberry has chosen Emma Watson as its muse, who poses with her brother, Alex. This is without counting on a certain awkwardness in the photographic retouching. In pictures:the Burberry photo campaign with Emma Watson turns into a fiasco

In this series of shots, taken by photographer Mario Testino, Emma poses alongside her younger brother, Alex. She is dressed from head to toe by Burberry, a luxury brand.

The campaign would have been a great success if the young actress had not accidentally lost a leg in the process, with the intervention of Photoshop.

This story is reminiscent of the fairly recent one of Twiggy (see article), the 60-year-old British model, who looked 30 years younger with the action of the retouching software. On a snapshot, Demi Moore had also lost a piece of her hip a short time ago (see article).
