There is something utterly graceful and mesmerizing about the body of a dancer; there is a sense of instant power and sensuality that is intoxicating as this poignant L’Express Styles May 2014 editorial proves.

Starring the statuesque dancer Dorothee Gilbert, the L’Express Styles May 2014 editorial takes us on a journey of seductive moves and forms that act as a beautiful backdrop to the season's chicest styles and the hottest accessories to adorn yourself with.

The French ballet dancer known for her exceptional work with Opera de Paris poses in pieces from labels like [Hermes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wings-of-hermes), [Van Cleef & Arpels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/perle-2026), [Bulgari](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gold-steel) and much more in the ultra-glam photo shoot. Styled by fashion editor Mika Mizutani and captured by photographer Gianluca Fontana, the brunette bombshell stuns in the mostly black and white images.
