I am definitely a bit late to the party on this one, but it is worth the wait. Between moving jobs, swapping from Mac back to PC (yikes) and a non-functioning BB, I have to refind all the stuff I had ready for you. And this was one of the stories. It is a beautiful editorial of the fall 2011 haute couture collections, photographed by Kaiser Karl Lagerfeld, on our very own super of models, Candice Swanepoel. And doesn't she look exceptionally beautiful?

I love that it is in black and white and styled in an old-world Chanel-style, circa 1940, by Andrew Richardson. Hair is by Sam McKnight and make-up by Val Garland.
