The Vogue Russia July 2012 'My White Day' editorial showcases a variety of ivory-only ensembles. Inspired by classic wedding day looks, stylist Sarah Richardson offered her own interpretation of time-honored matrimony apparel with eccentric couture twists.
My White Day was taken by photographer Richard Bush. Bush's use of a light grey backdrop fit well with the matrimony theme and with model Lily Donaldson's mastery of the set. The long dresses with seductive slits and chic pleated business suits displayed here are seldom seen at espousal ceremonies, especially when paired with My White Day's silver riding boots and blue open toe flats. Donaldson has nonetheless pulled them off in these pages with style, ease and her own particular brand of high fashion.
