The Elle Netherlands February 2013 editorial combines the rustic nature of a folk story with the innocent beauty of a porcelain doll. Shot in a wood cabin, model Rianne van Rompaey embraces a pioneer's life with bonnet and all. Nevertheless, her flawless skin and rosy cheeks don't appear to be suited for any type of hard labor.
Lensed by photographer Jeroen W Mantel, the Elle Netherlands February 2013 editorial is titled 'Liebe Auf Den Ersten Blick,' which mean 'love at first sight' in German. If it is referring to the clothes, fashion editor Thomas Vermeer has definitely managed to stir some deep emotions. Featuring the likes of Valentino, Dries van Noten, Givenchy, Chanel, Gucci, Marni, Louis Vuitton and Peter Pilotto, the wardrobe has a fun and quirky vibe about it.
