Alice in Waterland

I can splash a little but not with great conviction, which means I’ll never be able to model for Elena Kalis. The Russian born photographer who now lives in the Bahamas (jealous much or what :) makes the underwater medium her thing, mixing it with with a dosage of whimsy and magic, such as in this particular series: Alice in Waterland. Check the whole series here, her personal website, underwater portfolio or become her fan at Facebook. Fairytale Nation pt. VI: Disney’s Dream Portrait. Finishing the fairytale series I’ve featured lately, we look to the biggest fairytales sellers themselves: Disney.

Taken by Annie Leibovitz (who also lensed Alice in Wonderland and The Wizard of Oz, so she’s had plenty of practice at these) these photos were released in 3 batches throughout 2007 and 2008 and featured several celebrities (Julianne Moore, Scarlett Johanson, Rachel Weisz, Beyonce, etc.) taking the place of popular Disney pics and characters. { via Miss Geeky } Fairytale Nation pt.

Fairytale Nation pt. IV: Vogue’s “Alice in Wonderland”

Vogue US got Annie Leibovitz to shot an editorial based on Lewis Carroll classic “Alice in Wonderland”. Alice was played by model Natalia Vodianova and the bizarre characters that surround her were played by various fashion luminaries like Donatella, Karl Lagerfeld, Marc Jacobs, Viktor & Rolf, Tom Ford, Galliano, Gaultier, Lacroix, etc. Nicole Lesser.
