Vogue Germany





Anja Rubik for Vogue Germany, September 2009
photographed by Alexi Lubomirski


We had to share this Vogue Germany editorial featuring Anja Rubik because lingerie seems to make a cameo appearance in each shot. For every great outfit she is wearing, there's even better lingerie underneath. Of course some of the world's top lingerie brands make an appearance in these pictures: Carine Gilson, Myla, La Perla Black Label and Roberto Cavalli (we can't quite make out the other credits). We also love how stockings play an important role in most of the images, particularly the cover! In fact, the cover look reminds us of our new Fifi Chachnil Fall shipment that's on its way in...lots of sexy body-shaper styles (but more on that when we have the new items posted on our website).
