Captivity becomes model Iris Egbers as she embraces her situation in the Tush Magazine Summer 2012 editorial. Although held against her will in a steamy bathhouse, she manages to pose seductively in front of London-based Australian photographer Philip Riches’ camera instead of succumbing to emotions of fear and desperation. It doesn't hurt that the steamy environment is exactly what a [mermaid-turned-human](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shells-jewel-collection) would appreciate.

Stylist Monika Kropfitsch put together the [oceanic-themed wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/salty-mermaid) together for the Tush Magazine Summer 2012 editorial. The Dutch beauty was clad in designs from such labels as Prada, Versace, Jil Sander and more. Stunningly regal despite the [skin-revealing outfits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mariemurs-judge-me-guilty), she looks more like a goddess from the sea. The looks were finished with a plastered coif by hairstylist Hester Wernert and dewy skin by makeup artist Irena Ruben.
