1940s Glamour Editorials

The Barbara Palvin Vogue Australia August 2011 Editorial is Retro Sharp

The Barbara Palvin Vogue Australia August 2011 campaign is an exercise in the power of vintage aesthetics.

The Barbara Palvin Vogue Australia August 2011 editorial was shot by accomplished New York City shutterbug Eric Guillemain and styled by Naomi Smith. Both do a great job of helping Palvin shine in outfits from Louis Vuitton, Miu Miu, Chanel, and Balenciaga, among others.

For this shoot, Palvin's hair is coiffed in a well-crafted, 1940s influenced glamor cut. Not even a single hair looks out of place, and that's part of what makes this Palvin editorial so memorable. She manages to capture the elegance of the retro look while matching her facial expressions to match the theme of the editorial. She carries a poised and understated look that screams bored socialite, but manages to make this spoiled housewife look alluring. That takes a special kind of talent.

The Barbara Palvin Vogue Australia August 2011 editorial is on newsstands now.
