thanks for the thread, MartiniKiss!.. she's definitely putting Elle Russia on the radar with stories that capture moods and trends around us and that will obviously attract very active enthusiasts. I love the ones with Bellemère.. his work is irresistible, very feminine and sensual.
Personally, I find the loyalty to "Alt" less of a compliment and more like a big plea for Vogue Paris to hire her.. maybe it's the cynical in me, maybe any magazine trying to find back its way into the market has to do this but the cynicism is automatically triggered the moment I spot tiny shorts w/ a chunky sweater, and the rest (June, October & September 2011) isn't helping.
