Emily Baker appears to experience a spiritual rebirth in 'The Birth of Beauty' editorial for [Vogue](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vogue-singapore) Japan's January 2014 issue. While it's hard to believe that Baker was ever an ugly duckling, she certainly does appear to blossom as a beautiful butterfly (to mix metaphors.)

Baker is photographed by Julia Noni, as she lounges nude atop the breathtaking mountainside, covered only by luxurious pelts. Her "[no makeup" make-up](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/we-belong-to-something-beautiful) was achieved by Jurgen Braun, leaving her with an effortlessly beautiful look.

The overall result is a stunningly simple editorial that will infuse you with a sense of calm and rejuvenation -- and which could inspire you to [bare it all](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miley-cyrus-maison-margiela), whether it be by stripping down nude or simply leaving the heavy make-up at home.
