This Grazia Germany editorial is a blast from the past. Photographed by Leo Krumbacher and aptly titled ‘Hotel, Motel,' the editorial takes place in a 60’s-esque roadside motel complete with a rotary phone and a Hitachi television.
Model Rachel Alexander takes to the California desert decked out in classic a-line skirts, colourful geometric sunglasses, crop tops and bold prints. The colourful retro-inspired looks were styled by Nino Cerone and designed by the likes of Dolce & Gabbana, Prada, Christopher Kane and Miu Miu. Alexander's slicked-down waves, peachy nude lips, and bold brows prove that these classic beauty looks are just as stylish today as they were 50 years ago.
