Pirelli Calendar 2012
With the theme of natural feminine beauty, the 2012 Pirelli Calendar was unveiled this week in New York. This edition features Mario Sorrenti‘s work (the first italian photographer chosen in the history of the 47-year old italian calendar), who deliberately chose to not portray the models in an ‘obviously’ sexy fashion, as claimed by him in an interview for WWD:
Originally I thought I was going to do very sexy pictures, and when we got there I realized that I didn’t want the pictures to be sexy at all.
Faithful to this year’s theme, the images are elegant compositions based on a simple formula: the combined textures of the naked skin, framed and enhanced by the natural elements of the Corsica island. Beautifully minimalistic.

I LOVE these Pirelli calendars.
sorry, you failed those are Definitely sexy photos you took. I want to squeeze all those firm tires and slip them all some rubber and work on wearing out all their treads. Go Pirelli, go.
Somehow I regret my car is on Michelins…
