As the reigning queen of glossy editorial perfection, Camilla Akrans never fails to create a world filled with saturated color and glamorous inhabitants. Akrans’ latest for Vogue Italia takes blonde beauty Ieva Laguna and transforms her into a cherry haired vixen. Lacquered lips, a few well placed diamonds and a barely there fringe number by Versace selected by Ludivine Poiblanc, complete the sultry look, but Ieva brings the sizzle. With poses ranging from come hither stares to a full blown rapturous head toss, Miss Laguna is giving her all to the camera.

Makeup artist Diane Kendal and manicurist Yuna Park join forces to create a brightly colored beauty story for Vogue Italia. Shot by Craig McDean and styled by Edward Enninful, the off kilter images have an all star cast of cool faces and a youthful feel that keeps things interesting. Patricia van der Vliet,  Hanne Gaby Odiele, Hannah Holman, Valerija Kelava, Dorothea Barth Jorgensen, Hailey Clauson and Gwen Loos all sport vivid lips and nails that seem tailored to their personalities and McDean’s expressive images.

Russh never fails to deliver an inspiring cover concept and this month’s issue, featuring the lovely Ieva Laguna and the iconic Tony Ward, is a sight to behold. The sexy shots by Will Davidson are colorful, kinetic and filled with incredible styling by Stevie Dance. The energy that the entire team brings to the story can be felt in each picture; Christian McCulloch‘s vivid makeup highlights Ieva’s pristine look and Leonardo Manetti‘s hair creations seem just right, even as the models are being doused with paint.

Mikael Jansson turns out a beauty story for Vogue Nippon that highlights the individuality of the season’s freshest cosmetics looks and its most exciting girls. Ieva Laguna, Gwen Loos, Kelly Moreira, Patricia van der Vliet, Jacquelyn Jablonski, Jac Jagaciak, Frida Gustavsson, Mirte Maas and Alla Kostromicheva star in the dramatic story (cast by Ashley Brokaw), wearing daring makeup looks created by Mark Carrasquillo. The colorful makeup and George Cortina‘s expert styling, combine to create a series of looks tailor made for each girl – how great does Jacquelyn look with flame red hair or Alla with glossy purple lips and blue shadow?
