Alek Alexeyeva by Sølve Sundsbø for Vogue Gioiello January/February 2009
God I love Sølve’s work; the photography is otherworldly. I love how that this is an entirely gold-themed color palette, but yet, it doesn’t feel overly saturated at all. Also, the shiny accessories totally suit the seventies maximalist style in this editorial (big hair, loud jewelry, vibrant clothes). I think Alek has fun with this shoot, playfully showcasing the jewelry. She certainly adds to the tone and mood at any rate. Oh, and those bright gold nails are awesome. My next nail idea most definitely will include gold polish :)
