Vogue Korea June 2010 'Sail Away' Shoot is Nicely Nautical

Anja Rubik shows of the nautical trends of the season in this Vogue Korea June 2010 'Sail Away' editorial. Photographed by Nagi Sakai, the shoot is ready to hit the high seas.

Lots of stripes are featured in the shoot, in either black and white or blue and white. The bathing suits featured, though, are more atypical: Simple black bathing suits with a knotted rope around them. Cute! The Vogue Korea June 2010 'Sail Away' editorial is breaking out the more individual sailor.
