And no, "Missé" is not a stage name of Cindy Crawford, despite all the wishful thinking of so many all over the Internet :)

Just saying :)

Cindy Crawford photographed in 1993 by Annie Leibovitz.
That famous "Eve in the garden of Eden" photo of Cindy in rare high quality triggered the comeback of this journal from semi-retirement :)

Daria Werbowy and Francesco Vezzoli, La décaDanse photographed by Mario Testino [ via tFS ].

The work is clearly inspired by Francis Giacobetti's editorial published in December/1974 issue of Lui magazine and featuring Jane Birkin and Serge Gainsbourg:

Zippora and Levi Clark in no. 22 issue (May/2008) of Russh magazine, We Got it Bad photographed by Derek Henderson [ via tFS ]. The editorial is inspired by Kate Moss and Johnny Depp.

The latest Russh editorial, where Levi and Zippy seem to be playing the roles of underaged Johnny and Kate, caused some controversy and certain concerns about the age of the models. More at: [ news.com.au ] & [ blog.patyuen.com ]

Carla Bruni^[wiki] photographed in 1993 by Michel Comte^[wiki] in a pose, which allegedly references Georges Seurat^[wiki] painting Les Poseuses.

The black-and-white photo gained public attention after the recent announcement that it will be auctioned by Christie's^[wiki] in New York next month, in conjunction with Carla Bruni's present status of the First Lady of France.
[ via ABC News ] [ via FOX News ] [ via Daily Mail ].

On a separate note, both ABC and FOX, as well as -- I'm sure -- the rest of American media*, censored the aforementioned picture, which is by no means surprising, what I find interesting is that FOX chose to use the images of French flag for this purpose.

(*) I stand corrected, Bloomberg News published the uncensored pucture [via]

I do know that posting about Lindsay Lohan is a mauvais ton, but nevertheless here we go:

Lindsay Lohan in February 25, 2008 Spring Fashion issue of New York magazine, Lindsay Lohan as Marilyn Monroe in "The Last Sitting" photographed by Bert Stern.

In 1962, photographer Bert Stern shot Marilyn Monroe in “The Last Sitting” photo shoot and 46 years later, he revisited his classic shots with Lindsay Lohan.
