If you think pretty editorials could benefit from a little bit of life, Nick Knight‘s on the job.
Because while it’s nice to see images of models frozen mid-jump in this season’s runway looks, it’s even better to see them actually jump – half the beauty is in the movement.
As of today, you can see the final results of SHOWstudio’s “Let There Be Light” project. Knight, in collaboration with Ruth Hogben (one of Nick’s close associates), has directed Lily Donaldson dressed up in the best of Spring 09 – a Margiela jacket, a Jil Sander bodysuit, Lanvin pants, Balenciaga shoes.
Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at Lily’s photo shoot. Head to SHOWstudio for the final cut and highlights from V‘s editorial.
