At first I couldn't think of anything, but now inspiration has come to shake my hand.

The Spiderman


His arms are all around me and his tongue in my eyes


In:
Numero

By:
Steven Klein

With:

Coco Rocha
with red hair, please!

Inspiration:

Victoriana. The restrictions of period dressing and the deep angst of a new century. The mind in a state of unwillingness to move on. Old-fashionedness is celebrated. The girl has gone crazy. She does not want to know about industrialization and steam machines. She is like those who claim to be Napoleon in mental asylums. The Pictures are images from her frightened mind.

Hair and Make-up:

as at Christian Dior HC Fall 2007.

The looks follow in the next post...
