Inspired by the modern version of the retro pinup girl, the Garage Magazine 'Calendar Girl' editorial is sexy, seductive and drool-worthy--especially for men. Despite the fact that the photoshoot is inspired by the contemporary calendar girl, the images themselves have a vintage effect that gives them a retro feel. More '90s than '20s, the retro element adds playful character to the steamy shots.
The Garage Magazine Calendar Girl editorial was captured by French photographer Patrick Demarchelier for the spring 2012 issue of the publication. It stars model Edita Vilkeviciute, who was shot on location against a stony backdrop. Stylist Carlyne Cerf de Dudzeele outfitted the Lithuanian beauty in this season's swimsuits. The bright neon bangles and big hoop earrings are a definite nod to the '90s and embellish the otherwise simple beachwear.
