Brazilian model Aline Weber stars in a fun and fast-paced editorial for the [Vogue](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vogue-singapore) Japan April 2012 issue that channels the spirit of Tokyo and its [love of arcades](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-x-martine-rose-campaign). Aline is seen in a variety of elaborately detailed designs that feature sequins and other sparkling embellishments, such as [Gaga-inspired sunglasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inferno-sunglasses) and towering heelless platforms.

Aline Weber posed for fashion photographer Giampaolo Sgura and was styled by the ineffable Anna Dello Russo, street style star and Vogue Japan's editor-at-large. Anna Dello Russo chose to showcase several larger-than-life headpieces in the shoot, including a large, silver jewel-encrusted by Piers Atkinson, which Dello Russo herself has helped to make famous.

The Vogue Japan April 2012 issue will feature Kate Moss on the cover, photographed by Mert & Marcus.
