As far as editorials go, few things are more fun than a good jump shot. And while Caroline Trentini’s Vogue leap (pictured) has epitomized the jump shot for the past several seasons, she owes her inspiration to photographer Phillipe Hallsman, the man who more or less invented the technique. Hallsman captured everyone from Marilyn Monroe to Audrey Hepburn in mid-air long before Caroline was even a fetus, and for this adorable posing style, we thank him. Hallsman’s airborne work is currently on display at Laurence Miller Gallery in New York, but you can also check out a sampling of it on the internetz right now. Better yet, grab a camera and jump around a little yourself; it’s what Anna Wintour would want. [Fashionista]
