Twin models Ieva and Aida Aniulyte make a perfect monochromatic duo for Twin Peaks in Marie Claire. This May editorial features the Lithuanian sisters in all-white fashion with their long, blonde hair in a simple braid.
The all-brown accessories featured in the editorial are similarly sparse: a thick belt defines the waist in one look, while in another, a long brown belt is wrapped simply around the waist. Matching watches, shoes and bracelets bring the two-tone styling theme home. Each image complements the next beautifully, and Ieva and Aida Aniulyte are positively stunning.
Twin Peaks in Marie Claire was photographed by Simon Burstall and styled by Isabel Dupre. Designers featured in the May 2011 editorial include Max Mara, Michael Kors and Stella McCartney.
