Vogue Italia June 2011 - Who needs to be skinny? A celebration of "Real Beauty"

Who Needs to be Skinny? by Go Lightly in Fashion

Ho creato questo set in Polyvore ispirata dalla cover di Vogue Italia di questo mese, dedicata ad una bellezza lontana dai canoni proposti dal mondo del fashion, una bellezza "vera" appunto, a dimostrazione di come si possa essere ugualmente seducenti pur non entrando in una taglia 38.

I created this set in Polyvore inspired by Vogue Italia cover of this month, dedicated to a kind of beauty far from the standards of the fashion world, a "real beauty" indeed, with the aim to show how you can be attractive though you are not an "xs" size.

Into the Cover: Vogue Italia May 2011 by Steven Meisel

"Swimwear" is the headline on Vogue Italia cover this month, with a beautiful Kristen McMenamy wearing a John Richmond bikini. However, the atmosphere is everything but sunny and hot, and the top model is a kind of bohemian ice queen sitting by a window on a luminous, blue-grey and certainly freezing New York. Going through the pages, you see that the inspiration comes from the 70's, within the fascinating environment of the historic Chelsea Hotel and the artists, rockers and poets who lived in its rooms.
