Model Magdalena Langrova channels her inner Victorian muse for the Vogue Taiwan February 2014 editorial. Titled 'Art in Beauty,' it embraces classic oil paintings to show just how true that statement really is. As Fashion Gone Rogue notes, the brunette beauty "is a modern day version of Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, Gaston Bussiere’s Helen of Troy and more notable artworks."
Shot by photographer Yossi Michaeli, the Vogue Taiwan February 2014 editorial was styled by Melaney Oldenhof. Oldenhof pulled romantic pieces from the spring collections of such labels as Dolce & Gabbana, Burberry Prorsum and Dior to give the Czech stunner a modern baroque look, which was perfected with whimsical beauty by makeup artist Robert Greene and hair stylist Owen Gould.
