Talent Management loves to see models showing emotion and using their acting abilities in a shoot – and that’s exactly what the models in Dolce & Gabbana’s, Chloe’s and Valentino’s spring 2011 ad campaigns are doing.

The team and models here have just been checking out the full set of images from Dolce & Gabbana’s new campaign, and we must say we’re impressed.

The black and white images, shot by Steven Klein, capture Isabeli Fontana, Alessandra Ambrosio, Maryna Linchuk and Izabel Goulart with mouths wide open and brows frowning.

One shot even catches three of the models draped in black lace, looking as though they are in mourning.

Of course, the typical ‘model’ looks aren’t completely neglected; we’re still treated to a few sultry gazes and pouts here and there.

But overall these models are showing real emotion and expression in their faces and poses, which Talent Management thinks deserves some recognition.

After all, if you’ve ever had experience behind the camera, you’ll know that modelling isn’t as easy as it looks.
