The vintage supermodel revival has been put on high gear with Dsquared2’s [Spring 2009 campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-studded) featuring Naomi Campbell and Linda Evangelista.

Shot by [famed fashion photographer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles) Steven Meisel, the veteran [uber](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uber-eats-marketplace) models are seen engaged in a fierce battle over something that no one has made me privy to yet.

Meisel’s unique approach to this shoot has our two gladiators clad in elegant and seductive pitch-black garments with backless, cross-back details.

Even though I find the shoot kind of forced, I love the contrast between Naomi’s dark skin and Linda’s fair complexion ingenious and stunningly beautiful.
