Photo shoots in fashion magazines are usually geared towards a female audience, but I think it's safe to say that this Elle Italia June 2013 editorial will draw in a few male readers as well.
Shot by photographer Mark Pillai, the series features models Marlijn Hoek and Milena as they stretch and pose in flexible gymnast-like stances. They look like they've just finished an intense workout and are ready to cool down with a dip in the pool. Stylist Carola Bianchi outfits them in strappy monochromatic swim suits that are futuristic, fun and above all, sexy.
Check out this Elle Italia June 2013 spread to see how getting fit can also mean looking like you've just stepped off the runway.
