The Vogue China June 2012 Issue is sun-soaked and sparkling. The spread shot by London based fashion photographer Solve Sundsbo captures not only the beauty of Dutch model Doutzen Kroes but also prepares fashionistas for the summer season.
The suntanned Kroes glistens almost as much as the bejewelled bikinis she dons. The editorial features swimwear from top designers Prada, Bottega Veneta and Dolce & Gabbana to name a few. The suits have a retro vibe with their silhouettes that use higher waists. Yet, the shoot is completely modernized by its over-the-top use of bling.
From decadent colorful jewels to more subtle glitz, these swimsuits scream luxury. It is very doubtful that any of these suits could get any wear in the water, they can clearly catch the eye of any poolside sunbathers.
