The Fashion & Beauty Milan May-June 2014 cover shoot is fun on all sorts of levels. At first it appears to be channeling a jovial summer mood with its concentration on bright yellow accents. Yet it becomes immediately apparent that the color palette is inspired by the model's constant companion, a SpongeBob Squarepants balloon.
Lensed by photographer Lior Susana, the Fashion & Beauty Milan May-June 2014 cover shoot could be likened to a kid's party. Yet although full of confetti and cartoonish decor, it is undeniably adult-oriented. The model, Vera H of 2morrow, is outfitted in a collection of curve-conscious pieces from the likes of Marc by Marc Jacob, Jil Sander and Valentino. They were chosen by stylists Marina Bugranova and Barbara Centazzo.
