Eva Ionesco Playboy Magazine High Quality ((full)) -

Given her history, Ionesco’s work for Playboy is often viewed as a reclamation of the "Lolita" archetype. The models in her Playboy editorials often appear young, but not in age—in spirit. They are adult women playing dress-up in the costumes of their own lost childhoods. This is not pedophilia; it is archaeology. The high-quality prints capture the weight of those costumes, the solemnity of the performance.
