A Tuscan romance

Written by Tania Braukämper.

Sometimes fashion editorials can get caught up in the detail – and forget that the viewer should be romanced. A setting like Tuscany’s Castello di Vicarello, understated sweeping gowns, and the Goddess-like physique of Lara Stone are a formula for that forgotten romance. We don’t just want to see the rolling hills of Tuscany in Vogue’s pages; we want to be there. And, as Vogue well knows, selling emotions sells clothes.

Not to mention the fact that you’d want to keep an outfit like this Hermes SS11 one for a beautiful, exotic locale.

Some people's wardrobes are about a small selection of pieces that all fit within one aesthetic - Tania Braukamper isn't such a person. With a wardrobe that spans three different rooms, her approach to fashion is a mixture of current-season key pieces mixed with vintage finds she's sourced on innumerous shopping trips around the world's more cultured capitals. Despite a disparate approach to shopping, Tania is adamant that the key to mixing vintage with new season is to stick to key looks and colours that work for oneself. And it's a theory that she works into her writing for Fashionising.com, where she serves as the publication's Editor.
