Upon hearing the name Lara Stone the mental picture I conjure up is something of a mix between gapped teeth, big hair and bigger breasts. As chauvinist as that may sound the fact remains that with her unequalled curves, Stone has been a favourite of the nudity trend. While that may have previously led to accusations of a lack of diversity on Stone's part, such prejudices are sure be undone with the September 2009 issue of Vogue Paris if, like me, you do a double-take when told that it's Lara Stone who graces the cover.
Soft and feminine, scant in sexuality while oozing vulnerability are two ways one might choose to describe the cover. Photographed by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, and styled by Carine Roitfeld it seemingly leads the way into an editorial which promises a feminine sensuality we haven't come to expect of Stone.
Pictures from the editorial are currently limited and poor in quality, but can be found by clicking on the thumbnails below.
