For Vogue Australia’s 50th anniversary issue, photographer Todd Barry’s ‘Water Baby’ editorial features Karlie Kloss in nine one-off designer swimsuits created to honor the beauty of Australia.
Burberry, Chanel, Calvin Klein, and Dolce and Gabbana are among the fashion houses that created special designs for Todd Barry’s ‘Water Baby’ and Vogue Australia. My favorite of these is the off-the-shoulder Calvin Klein swimsuit featured first in the gallery; it was designed with Australia’s cerulean water in mind.
