French-Congolese model Ange-Marie Moutambo works with Sam Edelman [IG] co-founder Libby Edelman in these elegant, sophisticated, sizzling images lensed by Libby. Daniel Gaines styled the shoot with makeup by Megan Kelly.

Much of the product could be part of Caleres-owned Sam Edelman’s lifestyle brand expansion, largely through licensing, but AOC doesn’t want to guess. Our focus is the terrific product images with Mountambo lensed by Libby Edelman.

Model Ange-Marie Moutambo also delivered perfect images for Ralph Lauren’s Spring 2025 lookbook and website images, shot by Zoey Grossman.

Anne has her fingers crossed that this time Victoria’s Secret has figured things out, going into the VS archives for pieces and marketing campaigns DNA that I know very well. It’s now a positive statement on AOC to say that Moutambo also shot product for Victoria’s Secret Holiday 2024.

Moutambo looks equally sophisticated but also relaxed and engaged with the camera, wherever she appears. We throw around the word ‘confident’ like it’s confetti, but Ange-Marie Moutambo projects not only confidence but also a certain French understanding of the world around her.
