IT'S THE LIGHTING

Oooh...I love the new and striking, early 70s-esque Longchamp ads featuring two of my top four models--Kate Moss and Sasha Pivovarova. You all know and love Kate by now (if you don't then you must have been living in a cave since 1992 and have a lump of coal where your heart should be), but you probably don't know Sasha. While she lacks the fleeting fame of ubiquitous "it" models like Agyness Deyn and Daisy Lowe (daughter of Gavin Rossdale), her photos are always beyond mesmerizing. Plus, she's been the face of Prada since 2005. I blame her lack of household namehood on the fact that there are three, count them 1...2...3, Vs in her name. Sasha Pivavorova. Whoa.


Oh and I won't leave you guessing. My other favorite models are doll-faced Lily Cole, and Sean Lennon duet partner Irina Lazareanu. I despise Agyness Deyn. Not really her as a person, but everything that she represents. It's supposedly some sort of industry secret that she's old. Like 26 and just getting started? Whoa again.

  1. SASHA AND KATE?! Hot.

    Defenitely agreed about Aggy. Whenever I see her in an editorial the whole thing is ruined.

  2. Pivavorova...now try and say that last name ten times really fast lol. Looks like Longchamp is going to have another amazing campaign, especially if you have Sasha and Kate together. Hopefully this will give Sasha more recognition she deserves.

    And you are definitely right about Agyness Deyn! she doesn't even seem trendy, and she's not much on the catwalk. Not to sound mean, but hopefully she'll be gone with 2008.
