does this remind you of something?

"Old" fashion book found in a library in Paris last summer. ;)

Ah yes, I think I have seen something similar to this before!! :D

But I kinda like this pic more than Ayu's covers...only the face of the model looks weird.

you mean mirrorcle world cover?

it remind me of this shoot

Took 3 seconds to remember :P Yeah, very MW-ish :yes

Yeah, GREEN/Days too. I won't be surprised Shimomura took inspiration from this.

Honestly, this is very common shoot so I doubt it was particular inspiration from this

Yup. But with that one closed eyes she looks akward. I like the red roses better...but Ayu pulled it off better imo.

Yes, it does. And I really like the pic!

Kana nishino trying to pull a mw look?
Then yes.

I like this better than mw rawr where can I find scan of this?
Or who is that model?

^
The model is Gemma Ward.

I remember that pic :yes I really love it especially for red roses, although I'd like her more with both open eyes rather than one close. So Ayu do it better :laugh.

It reminds me of a mix between green/days, and mirrorcle world. With a small hint of I am...

A bit similar to Mirrorcle World, but honestly, I think it's a coincidence.

yep, the poses are very similar and the hairstyles look similar too.. but I don't think anything was copied. comparing the pics reminded me just how beautiful ayu is.

i would have loved if Ayu had this kind of pose just with both eyes open, it would have been gorgeous :D

Same here....and the model for that pic...her face is kind of strange-looking...her eyes look kinda squished....

And yeah, it's alot like MW's cover.....

I saw tha book on a library and tried to take a pic!!! It reminds a lot to MW!

woah i wish ayu did a similar expression like the model, its so much nicer :love

^ lol really? the wink is so awkward. it'd probably look even more awkward w/ayu doing it too

^lol i actually meant her other expressions (lips and stuff) and not the wink XD maybe its also the pose that makes the model version nicer

^they both have their mouths slightly open so I don't see much of a difference there (except gemma's lips have such a strange shape to them.. some people like it but I don't.. maybe that's what you like?)

Dude did she get socked in the eye?

I thought of Days/GREEN first.
But I immediately thought of Namie before ayu.

Umm it didn't remind me of Days/GREEN because it reminded me more of this
