Hedi Slimane’s trademark style of little (or no) colour and unfussy portraiture, while recognisable, doesn’t always jump off the page. But when it’s Anja Rubik that’s in front of Slimane’s lens it’s an electric partnership that always results in eye-catching images.
This time the power-duo get together in a shoot for Vogue Japan’s March 2012 issue, and it’s the little things that count: Anja’s exaggerated poses, Mika Mizutani’s glittery styling, a sensual hint of nudity, Anja’s lips reflected in a shiny metal bracelet.
Titled Ecstasy Of The Moment, you can view the full shoot at the gallery above.
