Bathing Beauties for Vogue Italia May 2010

{YBA} Models Kirsi Pyrhonen, Hind Sahli, Ylonka Verheul, Daria Strokous, Julia Nobis, and Caroline Brasch Nielsen star in “Bathing Beauties” in Vogue Italia. The retro, 60s-inspired black and white spread was styled by Karl Templer and photographed by the legendary Steven Meisel.

Wrapped in headscarves and sporting the latest swimwear, the “Bathing Beauties” in Vogue Italia show that even the most minimalistic of fashions can be made classy with the right accessories. None of the models are Meisel regulars, which might lead a few in the industry to wonder whether one of the newcomers has caught Meisel’s supermodel-making eye. Bathing Beauties  brings a contemporary flair with modern accessories and outerwear.
