The Missy Rayder WSJ Magazine March 2011 editorial emotes a distinct tropical vibe that makes the marvelous model seem like a mermaid washed up onshore. The long maxi dresses incorporate vibrant colors, bold prints and clingy materials, with a shoot that ultimately showcases the decadent dress designs ready for the Spring season.
The sun-kissed model's tousled, twisted and textured hair looks as if she's just emerged from a day spent riding the waves. With writhing poses and wistful glances into the camera, Rayder channels her inner beach babe on the beautiful shores of Turks and Caicos. I love the use of island elements as props, from the large palm tree leaf, bright tropical flowers and pretty purple lei.
The Missy Rayder WSJ Magazine March 2011 editorial, entitled 'High Tide', was captured by photographer Catherine Servel.
