The Vogue Italia 'Mannequin Thriller' editorial tells the story of a woman who wanted to look like a mannequin. Although the photoshoot takes a pop art approach that dramatizes this desire, it wouldn't be surprising if everyday women found themselves envying the perfect form of mannequin models. The look in model Kinga Rajzak's eyes holds new meaning with this in mind.
Shot by photographer Miles Aldridge, the Vogue Italia 'Mannequin Thriller' editorial is at once dark and vibrant, eerie and elegant. Set at night, the neon backdrops of the store window displays add the vibrancy as well as the eeriness. The retro-inspired looks, which were styled by Alice Gentilluci, lend the sense of sophistication. The photoshoot showcases the design of Gucci, Prada and Louis Vuitton amongst others.
