Naomi Campbell stars in Yves Saint Laurent’s fall campaign, but she’s out for spring 2009. So quick — everyone in the same room as Naoms right now duck and cover! Oh, we kid. Claudia Schiffer will replace Naomi for the spring ads. She recently said at a party that Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadib shot the campaign in L.A. last month. YSL designer Stefano Pilati is probably taking a turn from the dark fall ads, which feature Campbell and a chair in a desolate, attic-esque room. But blonde Claudia in L.A. — it couldn’t be more spring if you put her on a sun-soaked patio with a snow cone and a fawn. (Fall is great too, though … sigh.) Now we just have to sit back in our sweaters and wait for the ads to break. And for the tabloids to start rumors about Naomi and Claudia feuding, of course.
