The leather goods house Longchamps has released three more images from its risque Spring/Summer 2009 campaign showcasing Kate Moss and the dazzling Russian model Sasha Pivovarova.
As many of you may recall, Trend Hunter featured two images from this ongoing campaign several days ago.
In the glossy pictures, a sultry Pivovarova is seen closing her arms around Moss in a clear hint of physical intimacy.
The salacious shoot seeks to shine the spotlight on Longchamp’s purses and bags against a provocative backdrop filled with double entendres and suggestive hints of lesbianesque frolicking between the two super models.
We all know by now that sex sells but it seems that hints of it do just as well.
