Movies and television shows have a huge impact on the fashion industry, and the Julia Kravets Vice Style photo spread is inspired by the look of Cleopatra, since Angelina Jolie will be headlining a movie about her. Of course, this shoot also channels Elizabeth Taylor's portrayal, since it has not yet been revealed how Jolie will look.
Shot by Marley Kate, the Julia Kravets Vice Style photo spread is both strong and vulnerable. As the last pharaoh of Ancient Egypt, Cleopatra was both powerful and seductive. Yet, it is easy to forget the femininity among so much responsibility. This shoot manages to strike a balance between the two, and presents the gorgeous model as both powerful and frail.
