Bohemian Love

CELEBRATING THE ROARING TWENTIES IN A SPECIAL SERIES

One of my favourite images in the shoot: I love the hair rolled up in the comb … and that robe!

This has always been one of my favourite 1920s themed fashion editorials, and now I see why: the photographer is also one of my all-time favourites, Friedemann Hauss. I am guessing that the magazine is British marie-claire, from the early 1990s.

There is something more sophisticated yet bohemian than the typical 20s style fashion shoots; something slightly louche about the artist’s muse lounging about in silk pyjamas and trailing semi-transparent kaftans. Yet she is still elegant; ethereal yet earthy, wandering the cold, wind-swept beaches in her tweeds, living a dream-life … sigh.
