Young Dutch model Daphne Groeneveld stars in a dazzling couture-filled cover shoot for the [Vogue](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vogue-singapore-magazine) Korea April 2012 issue, her second Vogue cover in a month. The editorial is theatrical in nature, with Daphne posing with a fishbowl on the cover and channeling the essence of 'Alice in Wonderland,' through the use of ribboned headbands, red lipstick and a curled blonde hairdo.

The Daphne Groeneveld cover shoot, officially entitled 'Mystic Blue,' was captured by fashion photographer Rafael Stahelin for Vogue Korea April 2012. 'Mystic Blue' was styled by fashion editor Ye Young Kim, who selected the mostly black and blue couture looks in rich, embellished fabrics from Karl Lagerfeld's expert [Chanel Haute Couture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coco-crush) line.
