Helmet-Heavy Haute Couture

Model Anna Selezneva is an 'Eco-Warrior' in I-D

Russian model Anna Selezneva portrays an ‘Eco-Warrior’ in i-D magazine’s Fall 2009 issue. The black and white editorial was photographed by Richard Bush in the British highlands and mixes tough kilted punk garb with mannish military-inspired designer clothing.

Sarah Richardson styled the shoot to include pieces by Prada, Paco Rabane, Balenciaga and Y-3. The editorial gets its title from the barren British countryside, the bejeweled battle helmet by Scott Wilson and Selezneva’s unyielding gaze.
