Karmen Pedaru Covers Vogue Deutschland

Estonian model Karmen Pedaru 

celebrates her first ever Vogue cover this month!

After years of fronting giant campaigns 

for the likes of Michael Kors and Gucci,

her first Vogue cover is both well deserved and overdue!

Lensed by the amazing Alexi Lubomirski,

I don't have the makeup credit, but whomever it was is fabulous!

Congratulations Karmen!

Splash! - Sigrid Agren for W Korea, May 2013

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

Sigrid Agren W Korea

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.

Carolyn Murphy by Alexi Lubomirski For Vogue Germany

This one is from the June 2012 issue of Vogue Germany.

But as I'm not ready to let go of summer 

and dive into fall just yet,

I'm posting it anyway.

Carolyn Murphy takes no prisoners

as she heats up the pages in  fierce and fabulous

swimwear from Yves Saint Laurent, Tom Ford, Alexander McQueen and Norma Kamali.

Impeccably styled by Christiane Arp

with spectacular makeup and hair by 

Tyron Machhausen and Ben Skerviv, respectively.

Brilliantly lensed by the amazing Alexi Lubomirski.

Every image is completely magnificent.

Liu Wen For Vogue Germany ~ Peking Lady

Liu Wen is one of my absolute favorite models.

She consistently personifies elegance dipped in extravagance.

At once beguiling and aloof,

ever the sophisticate,

transcendent beauty,

and oh! - that mouth!

The August 2012 issue of Vogue Germany

has Liu Wen photographed by

Alexi Lubomirski

in an editorial capturing the mystique

of the far east

Lily Donaldson for Vogue Spain

The whole "sea siren" scenario was

getting a little tired and overdone.

Until Alexi Lubomirski shot this spectacular editorial

for Vogue Spain May 2012 issue.

Model Lily Donaldson perfects the sea siren

in designs from fashion houses including

Paco Rabanne, Marchesa, Ralph Lauren, 

Givenchy and Dior,

as styled by Belen Antolin.

Tomohiro Ohashi gives her bombshell beach hair

and makeup artist Tyron Machhausen 

bronzes her to perfection.
