Freja Beha - Perfect being feminine

Dear Blog,

I do think it is no wonder that I have chosen some shots by Paolo again... God, what would I do without him... Freja Beha is always perfect being masculine and feminine... She is such an universal character. I love her in these clothes and black and white shades. I feel Freja has been type casted as an Androgynous model that isn't very feminine. Of course she is! And this is proof...

My favourite is the 10th pic... She looks like a mermaid on that one...

Kisses,

Dream Sequence

Hi Blog,

I think that by now U probably have noticed that I have just become sticked to Paolo Roversi. I just cannot get enough of him and his works... Here is an other favourite of mine...This time Paolo delivers yet another hauntingly beautiful layout to W with “Dream Sequence”. The moody series stars Monika Jagaciak, Darya Kurovska, Dorothea Barth Jorgensen and Regina Feoktistova in ethereal designs by Chanel, Valentino and Givenchy Haute Couture. Styled by Alex White, the quartet looks as if they stepped out of a period film with their demure makeup and hairstyles.

It looks like having some influences from Alice in Wonderland...

Kisses,

The Great Illusion

Hi Blog,

Paolo Roversi plays with shadow and light to create a story filled with angels and demons to Italian Vogue. Aided by stylist Olivier Rizzo, Roversi creates an enchanting layout with The Great Illusion which features Lara Stone in billowing gowns from the likes of Atelier Versace, Chanel and Valentino Haute Couture.

Great listen-by music inspired by my Muse Vivien Valo!

Check out Karen Elson in this masterpiece...

Kisses,

Gina

A Girl of Singular Beauty

Hi Blog,

here is an other masterpiece of Paolo Roversi, this time in collaboration with Natalia Vodianova. There are two main aspects I have to aim on this strike of a genious. The first is of course these Haute Couture dresses that make me speechless... How wonderful they are! OMG... Make up is by L`oreal by the way. The second aspect is Natalia`s eyes... They look so magical... As far as I know Paolo uses good old pieces of cameras and never any digital gadgets. Well I think this was shot with 8X10 Polaroid, with long exposure, using a Maglight to flush more light into the eyes.
