My fave: very Robin Hood!
The August issue of Bazaar contains a “Fashion Olympics” spread by Peter Lindbergh featuring Lucy Liu. These images have gotten much controversy from the public, stating that this is mockery of the Olympic games. Since the games are in China, the photographer choose Queens born Lucy Liu as the star of his spread, which has made many people unhappy. Some say the photospread is dumb, using a movie star to convey the emotions of an athlete while wearing Louboutin heals and holding $3100 Gucci bags. I happen to disagree, I think these images are an ode to the Olympic games and actually pay homage to the athletes who dedicate their lives to sports. Obviously, the shoot was staged, and wearing heals while running races is impossible, that’s why you have to look beyond the pretty pics and realize that the photographer was making a statement.
What do you indies think? Mockery or Homage?
Thanks Jezebel for the pics
Rebecca does not like biographies. They are stupid and she would rather spend her time editing the site. Which she does with great vigor.
