For the shoes aficionados (who’s not one, these days? I confessed to my Burberry addiction, myself!), Jimmy Choo’s ad campaign for this very Spring Summer 2009 is out.
Modelling for the campaign is Angela Lindvall who’s bikini-strolling down Fifth Avenue in Terry Richardson’s lens direction. Not that we wouldn’t understand walking with nothing than your bikini [...]
