Stunning for Monsoon! Especially in those close up shots!

Love Lily for Aldo! I saw 3 pictures of her at ALDO and ALDO Accessories when I was at the mall, that haven't been posted. I would've snapped them but the camera on my phone is broken.

Quick Edit Wallpaper. The closeups are amazing. You'll probably have to click twice to get full size

 

[apriliciate]

[naya]

Yes, it is indeed a beautiful picture..but i just can't get passed the airbrushing, i guess i'm the only one who see's it!

 

[atooomic]

^ no, you're not. i find the close-ups beautiful as well, but there's just too much photoshop in it

 

[ffffred]

It doesn't bother me at all. The overall effect is spectacular. Lily is perfect - a work of art.

Thanks for bringing those over. I hope there are many more to come. There are like a billion Aldo shots from Stam's campaigns.

Do we know for sure that the pair of legs under the beachball are lily's?

Where has Lily Donaldson been all our life?

This, friends, is Lily Donaldson.
She’s a 24-year-old model from London.
She went to an all-girl school, which was a pretty shrewd move on her parents’ part.
When she was 16, she was strolling around Camden, browsing the shops, when a man rushed up to her and said, “You should TOTALLY be a model”. She said, “Yeah, alright then,” and the rest is history.
She has since modelled for Dior, Jil Sander, Dolce & Gabbana and Burberry.
A bloke whose job it is to know a lot about modelling said this about her:
“One of the most-expensive-looking girls, yet a frail beauty at the same time. Beautiful skin, baby eyes, and pouty lips. A real English rose, but there's a sexpot underneath all of that waiting to be unleashed. She's also more guarded than the other girls, which throws people off, but it makes me super-gushy and nervous like a schoolboy. I could totally see her married to a rock star!”

Climbing Up the Lily Ladder

At this point, all Aldo stores are enjoying their latest model moment - the gorgeous Lily Donaldson climbing her way up a runged ladder in those preciously printed wedges by Julian Louie. So on Tuesday night, Joe Zee hosted a shopping party at the Aldo store in Soho to celebrate the Aldo x Julian Louie collection. And though Lily wasn’t in attendance, a massive image of her fresh new campaign greeted guests as they walked into the store, setting the tone for an evening of fun shopping and catching up with friends.

In between trying on the gorgeous new wedges, Modelinia chatted with Douglas Bensadoun, the creative director of Aldo about the choice of Lily for their latest campaign. “The reason we chose Lily is because she is the type of model who is at once beautiful and sexy and charismatic,” explained Douglas. “She’s someone who is not intimidating good-looking; she’s someone you think, ‘I can hang out with that girl, that girl is cool.’ Aldo want to be stylish and cool, but we also want to be a brand that people can relate to. Lily is unbelievably intelligent. There’s an intelligence behind her eyes and a charisma that even though sometimes she has a steer veneer, the fact is that when you put her with Terry Richardson’s photographer you get this magic combination that’s at once irreverent and fun but all together desirable.”

Clearly Lily’s partnership with the brand has done wonders. Revelers were there to celebrate the collaboration, but everyone ended up shopping - and purchasing at least one (if not more) pair of wedges from the collection - Modelinia included. In case you’re vacillating between which designs to choose given the vast options, here’s a bit of help. Modelinia picked the Deanna, which also a favorite of Mr. Zee! The heels are currently available at the NYC flagship stores for $125 and will be in all Aldo stores nationwide beginning on April 18th.
