Hedi Slimane, Kati Nescher in Cahoots

The Patti Smith–like Nescher gazes upon her modern-day Robert Mapplethorpe (as semi-articulately suggested by Facebook fans), wearing what appears to be a cloak and string, the fourth image in Saint Laurent Paris’s introduction campaign. The first ad, if you’ll remember, featured no clothes; the second was apparently a crotch shot (showcasing denim-on-denim — sorry, weirdos); and the third was “Mapplethorpe” playing a rug underneath a pair of Escarpins. There are fifteen photographs total, so Hedi & Co. have a few more chances to put on a complete outfit and fit all of their body parts in the picture! We’re rooting for you.
