  2. Oshi Shikigami Agreed. And this is what I found on Simone, in case your wondering.
    A French babe from the vintage fashion presses, vaguely known by the #internet, Simone D’Aillencourt was from the very early 50’s considered to be a supermodel and a full blown international cover girl, having graced Vogue, ELLE and whole bunch of incredible Harpers Bazaar exclusives. The babe from yesteryear shot to fashion royalty and cult classic fame for her ‘Bubble’ shoot with Melvin Sokolsky in 1963, who was completely obsessed with fantasy scenarios which resulted in awe-inspiring photo-sets.
    I thought that name rang a bell with me. :)
    Thanks Tom Brydon
