[Fashion Party](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snake-game) is a vibrant editorial for Elle France May 2011 that features models Daria Strokous, Ginta Lapina, Iselin Steiro, Kasia Struss and Natasha Poly in some of the hottest styles from Spring/Summer 2011.

Photographer Jean-Baptiste Mondino captures the carefully coordinated models in fashion from the likes of Stella McCartney, Jil Sander, [Dior](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dior-2024-campaign) and [Prada](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dimensions-eyeshadow-palette). Fashion editor Friquette Thevenet styled the editorial beautifully, blending complementary hues, patterns, stripes and aesthetics perfectly. Each image is more expertly orchestrated than the last.

My favorite shot from Fashion Party in Elle France May 2011, however, is the one in which the models don an array of tropical-print dresses and candy-colored ankle-wrap sandals with a stiletto heel. It's a gorgeous way to inspire wanderlust in the best season of the year.
