There are editorials every now and then that take a trip down memory lane and revisit the 40s, and the Bregje Heinen L’Officiel Paris shoot is definitely one of them.
The shoot goes well beyond your average retro-styled look book as it gets model Bregje Heinen posing like a pin-up girl. She has the tiny glasses, pinned-up hair and hip splash of 40s-styled clothing. Nothing could express the vintage glamor more aptly than this editorial. The November issue editorial, lensed by Matthias Vriens-McGrath, has included every bit of vintage pizzazz possible.
If I hadn't known better, I would have concluded that Bregje Heinen was actually saucy pin-up actress from the 40s and these photos were dug up from some sort of sexy archive. The L’Officiel Paris shoot gets seductive silhouettes flowing and a burst of spirited jive taking over.
