Part illustration, part photoshoot, the W Magazine 'Sweet Escape' editorial blends two artforms to create a surreal and stylish collection of images. Yet no matter how pretty and whimsical they may seem, there is a dark element stitched throughout. Revolving around the theme of life and death, it is an exploration of contrasts that will captivate readers immediately.
Starring top model Karlie Kloss, the W Magazine 'Sweet Escape' editorial showcases "couture's otherworldly confections," as written by the publication. The American beauty was dreamily outfitted by stylist Edward Enninful, who pulled pieces from the likes of Dior, Givenchy, Chanel, Iris Van Herpen and more. Overall, the photoshoot is a cross between Parisian opulence and a Grimm’s fairy tale.
