KATE AND MARIO MAKE SWEET MUSIC TOGETHER

The Purple fall/winter 2008 cover has been all over the blogosphere recently: controversial?
Kate Moss wearing a Blamain dress, photographed by her ex lover Mario Sorrenti, and featuring the photographer himself naked and grabbing her hips in a lustful and fervid manner ... He sports his usual geeky glasses and is on his knees with an awkward smile plastered on his face. He almost looks anguished and frenzied ... 
The design is interesting and unusual with the text laid out across Kate's face. 
Other reasons to buy this issue?

Simply because Kate is a "Fashion-Mistress" !!! I was not really fan of her, BUT her ads for "Agent Provocateur" shooted by Mike Figgis definitively converted me !!! Sulfurous casualness . . . Beads of sweat . . .
ps: This issue seems to be very interesting !!!

A Bientôt, Antoine
