Magnum Temptation commercials

Posted Jun 7, 2009 at 15:51 CEST in Fashion and Movies and television.

After the cut are two commercials for Magnum Temptation that I recorded from TV, plus a few screencaps. They feature people in 18th century costumes, some of which are really beautiful. I’m wondering if the costumes were made for these commercials alone (probably not) or if they’re from a movie or something. Some of them look pretty similar to some costumes used in Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette.

I got really surprised when I saw this movie on the TV, surprised and glad. This is both fun and beautiful! More 18th century related things to the people! Thanks for uploading it!

Oh I feel like such a fool haha! I was over on the Clothes Horse thinking “Gosh, that lady’s style is wonderful…she looks familiar though…eerily like Johanna from the 18th blog, its uncanny!…Oh…that would be because she’s the same person” *slaps head* I’d just like to say you pull of every era perfectly :)

I just looked at my bf and smiled when I saw this commercial for the first time, he just shook his head, hehe. The icecream is really great too! ;P
The 18th century is getting more and more space, I saw another commercial when I went to the cinema, I don’t remember what it was for, but it was a guy dressed in 18th century clothing.

Ohh thanks for posting this! The yellow dress on the redhead looks simular to an extra’s dress in The Duchess that I love. I’ll bet it’s the same frock!

I love the 18th century, the dress, the music. What more could you want in an advert.
Love the blog very interesting.

I love this commercial. In Brazilian TV there’s also a commercial starring Giselle Bundchen with a rococo ball:
