Instead of just wearing high end labels, Jennifer Lopez posed *with* haute couture designers for the October edition of Elle Magazine.

The purpose of the spread was to honor JLo’s favorite fashion gurus. Among the chosen ones were Donatella Versace, Karl Lagerfeld, Diane von Furstenberg, Michael Kors, the late Yves Saint Laurent. There were others too that I could not identify.

Lopez was wearing the designers creations and some of the photos were remakes of past print campaigns by the couture icons.
