There have been many fairytale stories of the young girl waiting for her prince charming over the years and the Numero Korea February 2010 issue takes us on the journey of a modern day Rapunzel.
Photographed by Lina Scheynius and styled by Jeon Hyo-Jin, the spread shows model Hanne Gaby Odiele spending her days reading, waiting and slumbering around the house in turtleneck bodysuits, flowing mini-dresses and of course the signature Rapunzel braid. It seems even fairytale characters carry Louis Vuitton.
