Vogue Paris: Brighton Beach

Vogue Paris: Brighton Beach
By Richard James

An omnipresent theme consistent throughout Emmanuelle Alt's reign at Vogue Paris is the wearability factor speaking volumes to the consumer and the story "Brighton Beach" is no different.

In its context is a somewhat gothic undertone with a sombre atmosphere, a leaping Karmen Pedaru in a white atmosphere of her own elegance is all that is needed to translate the clothes to reality.

Picking up the issue and in an instant of seeing Karmen's story I felt the lyrics of The Steve Miller Band song "Abracadabra" echo — "Silk and satin, leather and lace, black panties with an angel's face."

The level of intimacy and its simplicity felt like a mini-series of portraits of one girl's emotions — The anger, the joy, the tranquility, and so forth really gave another depth to the story.

From her continuous presence in Vogue Paris I can't help but feel Karmen is in desperate urgency to grace the cover of our dear bible… just a thought to leave you all on.

Looks like an early 90's supermodel shoot.
