I have often thought that this particular actress had a chameleon quality that many, even her most prestigious peers, could not match, and the Tilda Swinton W photo spread seems to proves this. Typically androgynous and avant-garde as is almost always the case with her magazine features, Swinton introduces a more alienesque quality to this particular one, which gives it an eerie yet captivating vibe.
Photographed by Tim Walker, the Tilda Swinton W photo spread owes much of its exquisite extraterrestrial elements to the wonderfully artful styling of Jacob Kjeldgaard. From donning sweeping gowns to structured suits, the 50-year-old British actress is given a lot to work with in regards to developing an intriguing persona in front of Walker's lens.
The Tilda Swinton W editorial will be part of the August 2011 issue.
