The Vogue Australia 'The Sweetest Thing' editorial is truly as sweet as it comes. Not only does it have a romantic air, which is perpetuated by the soft setting sun, feminine wardrobe and lover storyline, it centers around a honey-filled bee-keeping theme. Shot on location at a rural New South Wales apiary, the accompanying intro reads, "Fashion is abuzz about the brave new world where digital tribes swarm around online hives. Sultry silhouettes and ladylike looks signal it's the season to act like a queen bee."
Lensed by photographer Will Davidson, the Vogue Australia 'The Sweetest Thing' editorial stars models Cassi Van Den Dungen and Lucas Pittaway. The photoshoot was styled by Jillian Davison, who pulled pieces from the likes of Miu Miu, Rochas, Dior and Alexander McQueen.
