Louis Vuitton has snagged Bono and his wife Ali Hewson for their latest Core Values campaign, which was shot in Africa by acclaimed photographer Annie Leibovitz.  What's so unusual about this image: the pair aren't wearing anything by Louis Vuitton!  They are dressed in Hewson's own organic ethical label Edun (which Louis Vuitton recently acquired a major stake in).
