Crystal Renn stars in yet another arresting short film, the latest is by Santiago & Mauricio for Interview titled “Two36.” This graphic short comes on the heels of Crystal’s video cameo for Gareth Pugh Spring 2012, which was the talking point for day two of Paris Fashion Week. Readers will recall this photography duo having memorably trained their sights on Ford Men’s Evandro Soldati in “Cruel Summer” not to mention Paolo Anchisi and Ethan James in a video before him.

Roitfeld’s approach isn’t everyone’s cuppa to be certain, but there is no denying the woman’s profound ability to create lasting images.
