I am not sure how it worked, who got there first or who commissioned and paid for this shoot featuring our very own SA model success story Candice Swanepoel, but this story was for the cover and inside both the Harper's Bazaar in Turkey and the Spanish version. This is the Turkish cover. And doesn't our girl look stunning in Chanel and Victoria Secret.

It doesn't stop with Chanel of course. She wears a selection of ready to wear pieces from labels like Balmain, Miu Miu, Isabel Marant, Christian Dior and Carven — you know all the coolest of the fashion labels for 2012.

Candice is of course from the Natal Midlands, although she spent this holiday season in Brasil with her long-term boyfriend and fellow model. She has been the number ten top model in the world for the past two years, combining her Victoria Secret Angel status with high fashion runways, campaigns and editorial shoots like this one.
