With a stunningly elite motif, the Vogue UK 'Deauville Rendevous' editorial boasts porcelain doll-like models.
The beauty of outerwear for this season is captured perfectly by the famed photographer Mario Testino. The aristocratic theme shines through as the models sport fashion that appears as if they were from the turn of the century. Today's runway garments are styled to mimic nostalgic Belle Époque attire.
The dark palette goes perfectly with the Blackout tendencies that have been seen in a multitude of September fashion stories. Fashion editor Lucinda Chambers contributes to the playful spread's array of decadently lavish garments. High collars, heavy overcoats, fur shrugs, statement hats and metallic peplum corsets are all contrasted against the model's porcelain white skin and minimalist make-up looks. With its one of a kind panoramic faded out finish, 'Deauville Rendevous' is an artistic standout in the September 2012 season.
