Devised by Grace Coddington and photographed by Annie Leibovitz, the December issue of US Vogue features a stunning editorial inspired by New York's Metropolitan Opera and their interpretation of Hansel and Gretel. Starring Lily Cole, Andrew Garfield and Lady Gaga, the editorial showcases designs by Marc Jacobs, Dior and Balenciaga to name but three. I love narrative editorials, and the theatrical aesthetic of this shoot demonstrates perfectly the creative symbiosis which exists between fashion and the arts.
The affinity between fashion and the arts is celebrated in the latest issue of US Vogue, entitled The Arts Issue, featuring the stunning Cate Blanchett on the cover. To watch a behind the scenes video of the Hansel and Gretel shoot and to hear Annie and Grace's thoughts on the issue, go here.
