Surrealism.


I've always been fond of fairy tales. When I was really little I had this beautiful book of fairy tales illustrated by Tasha Tudor, and after reading Alice in Wonderland I've been obsessed with finding fashion editorials and beautiful photographs inspired by fairy tales. Some are very obvious as to which story was the inspiration, and others are more subtle and will make you wonder, but either way they are stunning to look at.

  3. These are gorgeous. It's so great how many girls on the web love fashion and fairytales--and so wonderful the number of photographers who indulge us. :)

  4. love these types of shoots. they're the absolute best!

    and yes, I'm totally with you, turner is one of my favourites...he can get abstract at times, but then again it's also a lot of his best work :-)

    just gave your blog an award!
