Mario
Testino is the guest editor of the December issue of Vogue Spain. The renowned
photographer whose image is, according to the man himself "a mix of
fashion, elegance, humor, reality, beauty and energy" joined the team of
Vogue España in this true celebration of the Spanish fiesta.
The
December issue covers traditional Spanish imagery and a particular imagery of
this country's art of partying, from the long sleepless nights to that crazy
party called Tomatina. Trendemz took a glimpse at this particular production,
which brings us back to that wild tomato throwing festivity, and was stunned by
the fabulous visual result of this fashion production.
Higher+Higher
were the people behind the artistic direction of this issue inspired on true
icons from Spanish design, fashion and movies but from a modern
perspective.
Movida
was the Spanish movement, which brought party to another level, combining the
traditional and the modern in lovely promiscuous way. Glamour and excess, sexiness
and sophistication marked those days, something Testino did take into due
account for this issue, featuring leading icons from that time and which
have made it remarkably until today, such as Almodovar, Rossy de Palma or
Alaska. This issued thus feature everything that is remarkably Spanish or
Spanish-related. Hence the profusion of names such as Plácido Domingo,
Baroness Thyssen, Manolo Blahnik, Carolina Herrera, Marisa Paredes
and Manuel Benítez “El Cordobés”, just to name a few.
Kate
Moss was the model chosen for the cover of thus issue. The very same
actress can be seen also in a stunning production in the pages of this magazine
with Spanish bullfighter José María Manzanares.
