Beyonce did it a while back in a Giant magazine editorial, and now the Lanvin Spring/Summer 09 ad campaign shows us that there’s nothing wrong with loving up your own image in a mirror.
In the ads, photographer Steven Meisel captured model Iselin Steiro, kissing and loving her own reflection in the mirror after being styled by Edward Enninful.
And quite honestly, with clothes as beautiful as those in the Lanvin spring 2009 collection, it is quite understandable why you’d want to smooch yourself.
