Laetitia Casta, Alta Moda, Paris and a Chimp for Vogue Turkey

We’ve come across interesting shoots before, and well, in my opinion this one beats them all. Fashion editor Ece Sûkan, pairs super model Laetitia Casta with a Chimpanzee in a shoot set at the most recognizable landscapes in Paris.

Then, as you turn the pages, Tibby’s performance, and the way Laetitia is able to bond with the animal gives the shoot an added pathos.

On the cover Leatitia channels something of a mix between French aristocratic maiden, and well, French can-can dancer too, with her incredible legs on display.

The Alta Moda collection and Leatitia Casta shine as stars of the fashion set, and well, Tibby must have a future as a model too.
