The L’officiel Paris 'Natalia a Coeur Ouvert' cover shoot, which means 'Natalia has an open heart' in French, is certainly very open. It showcases a slew of ladylike lingerie looks that are as skin-revealing as they are sophisticated. Granted, the art of seduction has more to do with mentality than nudity, hence the demure sexiness.
Lensed by photographer Benoit Peverelli, the L’officiel Paris 'Natalia a Coeur Ouvert' cover shoot stars top model Natalia Vodianova. The Russian beauty, who is set to grace the March 2013 cover of the magazine, was styled by Alexandra Elbim. Shot in studio, the understated images feature pieces from such labels as Etam, Gucci and Rochas. Channeling bedroom beauty, the outfits are perfects with tousled curls and barely-there makeup.
