i like amanda moore and missy rayder's shots the most...
missy looks a bit like siouxsie sioux...
amanda's pose has the most fierce-ness to it, although i'm not crazy about the styling...

I was certain that was a wig, and I thought it made her look like a drag queen Additionally, her stomach looks gargantuan because of the shape of the dress, though I'm sure it's not IRL
The only one I like is the upper left, is that Stella?
I wasn't that fond of this collection, but I am less fond of this campaign ...
I actually believe it's one of the worst campaigns of the season. With a collection that was inspired by theatrics I was expecting something creative. I must admit that Stella looks good in her shot.
^ Lanvin.com has no info on the ads, which is odd because they usually list the photographers when they update the campaigns and collections.
I really want to know who the photographer is.
Well, it seems i's Steven Meisel? Although this source spells his name wrong, which seems pretty crazy.

Stories and words are part of my vocabulary. I wanted to make people part of my thinking. That is what interests me today in fashion: to think, to design, to dream and to laugh and have fun. I wanted to share it with the people here.” Elbaz also raved about Los Angeles. “The architecture and nature is great but what touched me the most is the people. I’m in love with this place because of the people. I feel very comfortable here.”
I assumed it was Meisel because he's been doing the Lanvin campaign for quite a few seasons now, but it's so unlike any of his work that I've seen.
It reminds me a bit of his early/mid 90s work at Italian Vogue. Although the focus is so soft here, which I don't associate with him. But he's everchanging.
the dresses are great!
the pictures reminded me of those misshapes photos
even though it looks offbeat and all..it looks pulled together..which is important i think in a campaign
there are no unnessary nimbs here and there..so i think it works
might be too offbeat for some people though
