fresh from november issue of elle us, and aburst with the fruitti tutti magic of oscar de la renta, gucci and christian dior is 'synchronized swim', photographed by carter smith. the second to last picture is my favourite.
"sun seekers, fashion has seen the light! it's not an either/or: you'll pack more pinup power by mixing cunning vintage notes- tender '30s florals, carmen miranda cuts and colours- with high-tech, contemporary cool" sometimes you have to smile and nod when reading magazines, it's impossible to know everything they're writing about. i got my albert on and googled 'carmen miranda' to find she was an influencial brazilian samba singer, broadway actress and hollywood film star, who was big time in the 40s and 50s. so influencial that she is considered to be the mama of brazilian tropicalism.
