Vogue Italia's 'Indian Summer' Boasts Alfresco Luncheons

Vogue Italia's 'Indian Summer' celebrates the beauty of outdoor luncheons. The concept of an Indian Summer beholds magical and often romantic elements, and these themes are present in this Ellen Von Unwerth spread.

One can expect great things from fashion campaigns that are stamped with the Unwerth seal of approval. The German artist has been praised in recent years for her work with Claudia Schiffer, Christina Aguilera and Vanity Fair, capturing her subjects in often otherworldly settings.

Indian Summer is similarly cast in a dreamlike state. Model Deborah Francis appears much like the characters from the Chronicles of Narnia series, full of enchantment and mystery. Stylist Alice Gentilucci was critical to the execution of these fictional looks as she clothed Francis in kimonos and Victorian-era gowns.
