Lighthearted Gilded Editorials

The Vogue Mexico 'Venus De Metal' Photoshoot is Playful

The Vogue Mexico June 2012 'Venus de Metal' photoshoot opts for bizarre and notably lighthearted motifs. The former Victoria's Secret model Karolina Kurkova assumed the atypical set quite well, displaying her ability to master nearly any production.

Photographer Nagi Sakai orchestrated a series of playful snapshots in the Venus de Metal Vogue Mexico editorial. The pictures feature Kurkova holding a cut up photo of herself to her face as she put on a shocked gaze. In another image, Kurkova is found laughing in a pair of studded Louboutin heels. And if these freeze frames weren't enough to drive home the jovial theme, the execution of a vivacious color-blocked set was done by way of red on teal scheme.
