Valentino S/S 09 : Stephanie Seymour by Mert & Marcus

I didn't see this coming and I'm not sure I like it.

WOW i read today that she was cast, had no idea the ads are alredy out.

But all i can say is MAGNIFICENT!!!!

What a beautiful ad, it looks like the iconic work she did with Avedon way back, the dress is fabulous, her face looks amazing, and i love the pose.Its simple and chic. It almost works like a grave stone for "AF for V", in a sad sort of way.

Thanks a million for posting this.

I love Seymour, she's fierce. The appeal of the photo is understandable but I have to say that the flexing of her thigh muscle does ruin it a bit for me.

while I didn't expect Seymour for Valentino, I am quite pleased with how it came out! even if the spidey fingers are a abit distracting
