Lachlan Bailey’s shoot Bloom Forth for Vogue China is a delicate, almost wistful take on floral spring dressing. Despite a palette that includes vibrant yellows and piercing blues, Abbey Lee Kershaw lies pensively across floral furnishings or perches listlessly in window frames. Clare Richardson’s styling is delicate enough to fit with the low-key mood. But all in all we can’t help thinking this is just…

As She Waits is the title of this shoot starring Abbey Lee Kershaw. Waits for what, we don’t quite know. But she feels like a girl out of place against the decaying opulence of an abandoned theatre, wearing girlish frocks and hairpins, paired with Prada’s hot rod heels and purses. Yet another shoot from the March issue of Interview (fast proving a must pick-up issue…

“The lush garden of Elizabeth Taylor’s former home” is the backdrop, though you’d think we might be entitled to see a little more of it. Instead this could be any hedge-lined rose garden. But the Beverly Hill mood does resonate throughout the shoot – especially with the strong play on retro florals that Francesa Burns styles into it. Abbey Lee Kershaw is the ‘American Pop’…

Update: you can now view a full gallery of campaign images after the break. And yes – the Art Deco elements are definitely in full force. Mert & Marcus are still the photographers of choice for Gucci, this time shooting the fashion house’s campaign for spring 2012. While the solid gold backdrop could be something from the opulent side of the ’40s, there’s little about…

Versace’s Cruise collection for H&M has colourful dresses that repeat with rows of fruit and butterflies like a hundred slot machine jackpots. The price point is, naturally, far from that of true Versace – the quality likely is too. But those fruit machine jackpots can have all the glamour of old Hollywood, instead of new Vegas, if the styling is right. And right it is,…

Six models (including the likes of Abbey Lee Kershaw and Amber Le Bon) styled by Tabitha Simmons and photographed by Norman Jean Roy, with only one shot of each making up the editorial. And what is it they’re posing for – what, exactly, is the shoot all about? Chandelier earrings. It could only be US Vogue.

It’s a dress cut that Karlie Kloss did so much to make iconic both on Anthony Vaccarello’s catwalk and at Carine Roitfeld’s Irreverent Ball. From the same spring / summer 2012 collection comes a variation on the theme, this time worn post-show by Australian model Abbey Lee Kershaw.

Sarah Richardson’s brainwave to take two antithetical things and mash them together – namely leather harnesses and flowers – was a brilliant one. The effectiveness of the combination in this shoot starring Malgosia Bela has stayed in my mind, the beauty of the pastel coloured leather against primroses and hyacinth being an unexpected twist for a traditionally fetishist accessory. Roughly eight months later we revisit…

It’s rare these days for a designer/high street collaboration to cause much of a splash. It’s hardly a new concept, after all. But when the combination is a household name label like Versace, and the look book stars Abbey Lee Kershaw, it’s hard not to pay it some notice. Catering to a young audience, the Versace for H&M collection rages with mini-hemmed party dresses. There’s…

The supermodels of the world, in their natural habitats, photographed in concepts constructed not by the Testinos or the Richardsons, but by themselves. That, you may recall, was the concept behind Rag & Bone’s DIY project. Having already yielded results both intimate and candid from the likes of Abbey Lee Kershaw, Karolina Kurkova, and Carolyn Murphy, the latest installment from the campaign concept gives the…
