Excessive Style Editorials

‘Divine Power' in Dazed & Confused Celebrates Reckless Aban

After delivering one of my favorite editorials with Hedi Slimane, über stylist and fashion director Nicola Formichetti goes for a totally different look in the new April 2009 issue of Dazed & Confused magazine with photographer Josh Olins.

Dubbed ‘Divine Power,’ the cover and inside editorial with model Lakshmi Menon is exactly that--a showcase of the divine power of fashion.

There is nothing understated or coy about this editorial. It is a testament of the love of fashion in excess and abandon.

Check out our recent features with the exquisite styling of Nicola Formichetti. He’s the man of the moment!
