Here’s a sneak peek of Lanvin’s 2010 Men’s Spring/Summer campaign, which will be launched in fashion magazines this February.
The photo spread was shot by married couple, Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin, who this time around also appear in front of the camera. The campaign is a love story between these two artist who have merged their talents and their lives to create something visually spectacular.
Inez who appears nude in these shots acts a focus, drawing the eye into a frame that captures the fluidity and structure of the clothes worn by her lover, Matadin. I find the images beautiful, the red body paint which covers Inez’s skin took two hours to apply and somehow transforms her into some sort of modern day succubus. A transformation and image worthy of note, in my opinion.
