Pras Michel, best known from the hit group The Fugees, is more than just a recording artist; he’s is also an amazing storyteller.

Agent Provocateur Spring/Summer 2012: The Initiate + The Muse Film

by xoJohn March 7, 2012

written by xoJohn 2 minutes read

To celebrate Agent Provocateur’s Spring Summer 2012 collection, Mylene Jampanoï stars in two short films directed by Jordan Scott and produced by RSA films.

The collection of films show a departure from the fierce and overtly sexy world in favor of a softer, more romantic type of erotica. A feminine sensuality rather than unabashed sexuality, inspired by the dreamymood, colors and romanticism of the collection. Inspired by the iconic films of that era, ‘Emmanuelle’ and ‘The Story of O’, it is a move towards a 70’s come-hither, soft-core approach. A coy innocence that comes over all coquettish and “who me…?”. There is innocence to all the characters – they are out of reach, but teasing us to come closer; their stories leave you with a yearning nostalgia and the desire to know more.
