//122/ Dress: Mango Spring Lookbook 2011

Mango Spring Lookbook 2011

Photography: Terry Richardson

Model: Isabeli Fontana

//The different components of this lookbook are all not too awful: there are some decent pieces, the photography is okay, the setting is nice. What really makes it however, is the beautiful Isabeli and her ability to look totally natural in front of the camera. She even managed to save the dreadful styling, which really was quite bad in some of the images (I selected only the best). So there you go: the model does actually need to be "talented"...

//And now to jump-start this silly idea of mine. In order to satiate my burning desire to write, I will introduce you to Terry Richardson: one of the most prolific and compelling photographers of his generation. I copied and pasted that last bit- those are not my actual words, even less my actual thoughts. And I got that from the biography on his site: talk about conceit! He is kind of a big deal in the fashion industry though so maybe his conceit is justified. 

//Beyond being a prolific photographer he is also a- get this- international celebrity. That translates to socialite that sleeps with plenty international models. Enough with the criticism though: I admit that he is a talented photographer and his photographs are nothing short of captivating. Check out his portfolio at terryrichardson.com.
