Through Foto Decadent, i discovered the photography of Linus Ricard, a Swedish London-based photographer. He also happened to have recently shot the collection of Pia Stanchina which I rooted for two weeks ago, urging some magical collaboration to happen. I'm still crossing my fingers of course. What I found interesting about these images though was that from the fairy wings that I had envisioned when I first saw Pia's lookbook, now comes a much rawer image. The garments become a little bit more sinister with a bit more mystery behind them. Whatever way you look at it though be it Ricard's blurry lens or the original purist lookbook, it's still a heck of a lot of beauty but just presented different ways so yes, it's another plea for Pia post (alliteration is so damn good....).








































So dreamy, those are beautiful!

Lovely photos, dreamlike and harsh at the same time.

Beautiful. I love the 8th one from the top, it sort of looks as though she's falling through a cloud, or at least is about too. Definitely need to check out more of his work.

Normally, I'd scoff at blur, but here, it works very well. I love the ethereal minimalism, too. That girl is very . . . something. Something that succeeds.
