Naomi Campbell isn't exactly the most mellow of supermodels, but the girl certainly is stunning! For her latest editorial offering, V Spain got a little controversial as per Sabastian Faena by getting a little bondage-chic (light on the chic) in honor of racy filmmaker Pedro Almodovar, throwing Naomi in selections from the Louis Vuitton fall collection atop a pink sheet. As the Daily Mail writes, "Taking the story of Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down, Mr Almodovar's most popular title, the contentious shoot is a nod to the story of a psychiatric patient who, in a desperate attempt to make a porn star his wife, ends up holding the woman hostage." While it's good to know there's a story behind the submission, it's still slightly off-putting as the glamorization of violence against women. Known for her commanding attitude, it seems Naomi didn't have a problem getting gagged to make a statement.
"I’m sure some have wanted to ‘tie me up and tie me down’ and perhaps others wanted to tape my mouth shut! But this is something I would only permit for this issue dedicated to Pedro [Almodovar] as he always does everything 'tongue-in-cheek.' I only know Pedro socially. However, what I have always liked about Pedro is that his films perfectly combine passion, intelligence and style with a twist of humor – leaving his indelible mark on everything he does. I think that was the essence Sebastian [Faena] drew upon for our cover photo shoot."
