Patchwork ~ Numero #142

I missed a day of blogging yesterday,

as I had almost no internet service while

shooting swimwear the past few days

in sunny Southern California.

But now I'm back, and I wanted to show you

this fascinating shoot from France's Numero Magazine.

Sigrid Agren by Sebastian Kim for Numero 142

Photographer Sebastian Kim and stylist 

 Charles Varenne team up again on this

color infused story. Varenne brilliantly works multiple

vibrant hues, textures, and patterns in a crazy

and inspiring juxtaposition with bold

and fascinating accessories,

choosing from designers including Alexander McQueen,

Zadig and Voltaire, and Hedi Slimane for Saint Laurent.

Hairstylist Rutger and makeup artist Maud Laceppe

complete the look with exquisite restraint.

If I never ate another carb in my life

and did 8 hours of spin class each day,

my body still would never look like this.

I love this story in W Korea's May 2013 issue!

Model Sigrid Agren sports wet hair

and a glistening face courtesy of

hairstylist Teddy Charles and 

makeup artist Tyron Machhausen

in this slick and vibrant editorial shot by 

uber-cool photographer Alexi Lubomirski.

Stylist Brian Molloy offsets the "Splash"

theme by dressing Sigrid in black and white, 

giving the story a crispness

while redirecting the story to the fashion.

Fabulous.

I love fashion shot in the desert.

No doubt because I live in the desert.
