James King was so cool in the 90's, to me she is the perfection embodiment of the whole "heroin chic" look. Her vacuous expression, her empty eyes and fragility, combined with Davide Sorrenti's blurred and decadent photos, definitely make her the perfect leader of this aesthetic trend.

Oh wow, someone's actually making a feature documentary about Davide Sorrenti, titled See Know Evil. They interview the Sorrentis, James King, Milla Jovovich, and more. http://see-know-evil.tumblr.com/
