Editor’s Letter

My three favourite fashion photo shoots this week…

Emma Watson’s stunning beauty is captured by Mariano Vivanco in the ‘Pick Me Up’ issue of i-D Magazine. Styled by the chic Caroline Sieber, this editorial showcases Watson’s sweet, girlie side while still being sophisticatedly alluring. And love the adorable puppy! GORGEOUS!

Drew Barrymore channels Old-Hollywood glamour in the new Neiman Marcus campaign. In an assortment of looks from the coming Fall season, including; Tom Ford, Valentino, Pucci and more, Barrymore lights up the lens with the unmistakable charisma of a Hollywood icon. Eddie Nunns, vice president of Neiman Marcus brand creative, said of Barrymore: “The shoot tells the story of a star’s transformation and Ms. Barrymore had a strong hand in the execution, even down to having a point of view on hair styling. She’s a powerful, modern woman with trans-generational appeal.” EXQUISITE!

Model, Rhaisa Batista, wears striking colourful looks in feminine shapes and masculine tailoring for Vogue Brazil. Lensed by Eduardo Rezende, the feature is set in a tropical street fare which perfectly complements the vibrant clothing! BEAUTIFUL!
