Taking a classic look at modern fashion, the Kate King Interview Russia editorial is set in a small town in another era. Inspired by the 1984 film 'Nostalgia,' which was directed by Andrei Tarkovsky, the 17-year-old Canadian beauty embodies the personalities of two characters: Domenico the lunatic and Eugenia the translator and temptress. Lost and alone, she wanders around her desolate home in her Sunday best.

Lensed by New York-based photographer Arno Frugier for the magazine's May 2012 issue, the Kate King Interview Russia editorial is both haunting and beautiful. King spends a day reminiscing about the past in outfits styled by fashion editor Gro Curtis. Pulling pieces from the racks of [Chanel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chanel-winter-tale), [Givenchy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mask-fit-red-cushion), [Valentino](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles) and more, Curtis complements the theme with tragically elegant and ladylike ensembles.
