Roitfeld And Richardson In Humor Chic

In his most recent post on Humor Chic, aleXsandro Palombo draws attention to the fact that fashion makes strange bedfellows. He has created a scene that I would never want to wake up to, quelle horreur. In the artist statement on his site Palombo writes: "When I put pencil to paper, I know where I'll start but I don't know where I'll finish." This particular amour à trois is one funny stop indeed.

Humor Chic: Roitfeld And Richardson

With his latest illustration on Humor Chic, aleXsandro Palombo expresses his opinion and then some. I did not realize that the recent controversy around Terry Richardson also pulled Carine Roitfeld into the quagmire. Please read his perspective and then tell me, does La Roitfeld aid and abet in the trafficking and exploitation of underage models? Say it isn't so...

At my photo shoot with the lengendary Terry Richardson. Praying I won't be talked into posing with a rubber chicken, dildo or nipple clamps.
