It's Azure Not Blue


I wake up this morning and the moment I saw this fashion spread I felt sort of enamored with these photographs featuring Isabeli Fontana and shot by Mikael Jansson for the June/July edition of Vogue Paris. I don't know if it's the exotic beauty from Isabeli or the nonchalant glamour mood that these pictures depict that attract me so much. I love juxtaposition of the sensuality of the gowns shot against these stale rocks, which takes the spread away from the banality of a beach shoot. I think the addition of the divers was smart, it gives the pictures a new dimension and it just makes the whole thing more interesting, there is a story here. For this season I didn't see so much blue, or should I say azure. But I guess the editors felt it was a color that needed a fashion spread, which is great. I love the first blue marine dress from Pucci and this turquoise colored asymmetrical gown from Versace. These are what I called "killer" looks.
