We love this shoot because it dares to marry two completely antithetical fashion trends: the fairytale romance trend and the fetish trend. Though the delicacy of the former sets it poles apart from the hardness of the latter, Vogue Italia’s ‘NEO-romantic’ shoot brings them together in a sort of modern harmony.

Look out for: McQueen’s jewel-encrusted catsuit; Rodarte’s chain fetish shoes; Delfina Delettrez’ skeleton-hand bracelets; and some bondage-inspired leather harnesses – each of which contrasts fabulously to the soft romantic dresses in the shoot.

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.
