The Water Effect






I was lost for words when I laid eyes on this pictures on Fashion Ivy, which is a rare occurence.


I love the way the photographer captures the light. The movement of the models is so elegant and striking. It reminds me of the opening sequence of Stanley Kubrick's 1968 film '2001:Space Odyssey where the satellites are in orbit with non digetic classical music, creating the idea that they were dancing in space.


It's funny because this type of shor has been attempted every season in both American and Britain's Next Top Model and none have managed to get quite like this.


What do you think?

They are absolutely breathtaking aren't they? As well as being beautiful, there is a definite creepiness at the same time - they sort of remind of a mixture between dead bodies floating in water, and jellyfish...All in good taste, of course. Lol.
I wonder who the photographer is? I don't remember if Fashion Ivy wrote who it was or not, or maybe I just wasn't paying attention lol.
