Giorgio Armani unveiled their new Victoria Beckham ad for Emporio Armani [women's underwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calvin-klein-shapewear) for Autumn/Winter 2009/10, and it was *major*!

Victoria Beckham herself unveiled the 20-foot tall image on May 6th on the main floor of Macy's Herald Square.

Shot by Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott, the image shows Beckham with a sexy high ponytail and her trademark rocking body.

**Implications** - Despite the use of social media and web advertising, billboards remain common as a marketing strategy. The outdoors have always been the perfect place to place ads when people are out of their homes. [Outdoor advertising](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/worlds-heaviest-billboard) remains effective when technology isn't involved due to its larger-than life nature. It's viewed by thousands of passersby and it's less annoying than commercials or pop-up ads on the web.
