Hedi Slimane Turns Lensman for Prada's Spring '09 Men's Campaign

We just learned that former Dior Homme frontman, Hedi Slimane, shot the Prada Spring '09 men's ad campaign. The skinny tie-loving designer shot portraits of Louis and Claude Simonon, sons of Paul and Tricia Simonon, the bass player and manager of Punk band The Clash. This is the only shot we could get our hands on for now, but one has to wonder... is Prada perhaps heading down a new, harder-edged road? Guess we'll have to wait and see (WWD). Also, what's with all the designers turned photographers... first Karl, now Hedi... who's next?
