How fantastic is this photo shoot that 
Steven Meisel shot for Vogue Italia?!











These images have been kicking around on my computer
for a while now, thought it was about time to share them.



Sorry, not so sure about the original link or issue details.
If anyone else knows, please fill me in.

Karen Elson



                                      
I have always much admired the style of Karen Elson.  

Her signature red henna locks, her penchant for 
theatrical designers, her eclectic montage of vintage 
and nouveaux fashions, and this vogue cover


She also happens to be a pretty damn fine songstress 



THE GHOST WHO WALKS

I have had this album on constant play since it 
was gifted to me last year for my birthday... 

check out this live clip for the title track ↓


(I am so in love with that dress...)

The Lovely Miss Elson




via styleite.com
 

It may be hard to believe but this cover caused quite the stir when it hit the newsstands back in the February of  1997. Styled by the ever perverse talent of American photographer Steven Meisel 
(of Madonna Sex book fame), Karen, then just eighteen, was 
persuaded  to shave off her eyebrows for the shoot, an act which subsequently earned her the lovely nickname "Le Freak". Ah, I will always be a fan of the eccentric stylings of Vogue Italia 
and of this most enchanting lady...
