These print adverts for SHS Teen Clothes totally rock; in fact, the ads belong to the best I have seen in months.
These incredibly random safari shots were created by CBGrey Paris and photographed by Riccardo Bagnoli.
The Hello Kitty skull has to be one of my favourite details, and the spit roasting Pinocchio is nothing short of genius.
I love they way these adverts would work as a series of photographs on their own, out of the context of SHS.
