It would be easy to compare model Mimi Elashiry to a young Brooke Shields from 'Blue Lagoon,' yet there is much more seduction than innocence in the Planet Blue SS14 lookbook. Her long hair, bronzed skin and blue eyes might make the comparison easy, but her serious stare and overtly sexual poses beg to differ. Yet the 'stranded on a island' is a perfect theme for the swimwear catalog.

The Planet Blue SS14 lookbook, which is titled 'The Perfect Storm,' was styled by Oracle Fox. It is full of mesh-panels and sporty racer that are complemented by silver coin jewelry to further its bohemian appeal. Yet the ultimate accessory is the sandy beach itself, half of which appears to be all over the brunette beauty's body.
