Famed photographer Steven Meisel captures the beauty of a love-hate relationship in his latest shoot for Vogue Italia March 2010. The spread ‘In Grande Style’ shows model Freja Beha Erichsen playing the role of the classic beauty with twenties-inspired hair and draped in gorgeous furs and sweeping gowns.
The controversial spread also features a dramatic male character posing nude, in a robe and sporting a tremendous amount of makeup. Shot in a gorgeous boudoir-style setting, this spread is nothing less than elegant beauty.
