Lara Stone stars in 'Get Back, Stay Back,' a fierce spring editorial for the V Magazine 76 issue that carries on the sports issue theme with Lara acting out a self-defense scene with a suited mail actor.
The shoot was photographed by Nick Knight, and the page layout of the shoot is of particular interest as it mirrors an Instagram-esque, contact sheet design, incorporating several small photos in addition to large ones. Get Back, Stay Back was styled by Carine Roitfeld, former editor-in-chief of Vogue Paris, who chose to showcase a pair of spring 2012 Prada heels inspired by American automobiles that have been popping up in almost every editorial this season.
The V Magazine 76 spring/summer 2012 issue features a feisty boxing-themed cover shoot of Jennifer Lopez by Mario Testino.
