‘A State of Grace’ is an ethereal editorial by photographer Mariano Vivanco that was published last year in AnOther Magazine.

The editorial is a collaboration with [Swarovski](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swarovski-and-erewhon), who illuminated the shoot with their patented crystals. Models Anouck Lepere, Lyoka Tyagnereva and Katrin Thormann represented the Three Graces and were styled by Nicola Formichetti in [lingerie, silk](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-heat) and [Swarovski crystals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oakley-x-swarovski).

Regan Hall filmed and edited a complementary video of the shoot.
