The Grazia Germany October 2012 editorial takes the [military fashion fad](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bw-army-lux) to the sea. Instead of boarding a ship to battle, however, model Elsa Briesinger is simply shot roaming the beach shore as though in search of rescue. Smartly dressed in [tailored ensembles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/galilee-by-sea), she is fit for command even though she doesn't appear to have any accompanying soliders with her.

Lensed by photographer Tina Luther, the Grazia Germany October 2012 editorial was shot on location in the English countryside. Deputy fashion editor Nino Cerone, who concentrated on [posh coats and jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/siegelman-stable-1), outfitted the Swedish beauty in the designs of Givenchy, Max Mara, Tommy Hilfiger, Gucci, Belstaff, Isabel Marant and Maison Martin Margiela. A slicked-back chignon and red lips by beauty artist Spiri Fountoglou finished the strict looks.
