MADONNA is once again frontin' for Dolce & Gabbana. This time, for their Autumn Winter 2010 / 2011 womenswear ad campaign photographed by Steven Klein (who recently directed Lady Gaga's 'Alejandro' music video, check it out HERE) last May on location in New York.

The vision? According to the fashion house's very own Swide magazine: "Steven Klein captured frames of life, entered the home of a proud family, and put Madonna at the heart of it, breathing dignity and poise.

Scenes that evoke tenderness, at times true happiness found in moments we capture in an impromptu, or a profound sense of pride and solidarity between family members."

"Madonna is the light at the centre of the family axis, she is the story, the point of gravity to which all other members attract.

She is cajoled, protected, glorified, her sun-touched hair piercing through the black and white background.

An incredible way to swift through a tale and start thinking of winter with a sense of warmth"

It's said that Madonna hand-picked young model Max Schneider for the campaign - who as it turns out is also a musician, having just released his debut album 'First Encounters'. Speaking of which, here's how he described his first encounter with her Madgesty:

"I fell very relaxed and comfortable being around Madonna. She made me feel completely at ease."
