Alice in Wonderland is a beloved kids story that has been around for ages, and the Bohemique Cruise 2013 lookbook took inspiration from a darker version of Alice.
Russian brand Bohemique used model Sasha Luss in order to evoke a whimsical high fashion take on the classic story. The clothes are a sensuous take on the dress that Alice wore. They are short with layers underneath the skirt giving it incredible volume. Also, the black bow fixed on Luss' head continues to add to the theme. However, this shoot is no children's story. The backdrop is in a dark and eerie building, and the other outfits Luss has on are grown-up and have sexy silhouettes. This Bohemique Cruise 2013 lookbook demonstrated an adult version of a classic story, and also showcased some stunning pieces.
