Whether they’re in the same room or listening to each others’ silences down the line of a telephone, the two characters – played by models Antonia Wesseloh and Joost Asche …

With clashing prints and textures against a minimalist’s nightmare of a house, this shoot is as busy as a New York street in peak hour. But when the 1950s and 60′s are your fashion inspiration – and when Karlie Kloss is your model – that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Kloss wears every ladylike outfit with sweet conviction, from the lace dresses to the vintage-inspired …

Iris van Herpen is a young and very creative fashion designer presenting her own peculiar visions of the universe through her innovative, unique work on the fashion stage. Merging high technology, traditional craftsmanship, intricacy of form and unusual fabrication for her presentations, she perceives fashion as a form of self-expression.
