The models in UK Vogue's latest editorial 'Sugar Rush' (shot by Benjamin Alexander Huseby) are displayed in a pallid array of pastels, appearing both flippant and fatigued as if they could not walk another minute in their high-end, fabulous shoes.
The backdrop and props for this photo shoot help to emphasize this season's “sharp lines, stunning details and elegant shapes,†showcasing designs from some of the newest, hottest and most promising designers on the market.
Implications - The stunning 'SUGAR RUSH/ SPOILT FOR CHOICE/ RAY OF LIGHT' editorial was photographed by accomplished English photographer Benjamin Alexander Huseby, and styled by the lovely Joanna Schlenzka for Vogue UK. And what a team they make. Do not be surprised if you see Vogue UK compiling this crew again for another shoot. As the adage goes, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
