Kerala in Vogue

Vogue Uk has featured 20pages of kerala's beautiful landscapes in a fashion feature of its June. Just that this is one fashion feature where i wasn't looking at the model nor the clothes! it was so beautifully photographed that the french photographer patrick demachelier's take on the ordinary and simple makes every thing look so surreal and romantic - I am tempted to call it travel photography.
I would love to upload the images - but dont know how. If somehow can help - ??

The Keralan ladies in their saree are looking far better than the model walking through the paddy field

I agree. And I'd say the school kids outshone the model too!

True. And the faces of the ladies in the bus made me laugh. They're look seems to tell: Ah, these crazy foreigners, annoying

Sorry Frangipani, no offence against you, I'm enjoying the Kerala pics!

No offence taken Fed - I just thought the scenaries might inspire people to come out to Kerala more so that buy those summer clothes! Given the focus and attention think the photographer was more taken up by the landscapes too. Model is not bad guys. Come on!

Hate to be a spoilsport, but magazines like Vogue, along with their supplying agencies and the photographers themselves, tend to be very fussy about copyright, and, no, attribution does not make it all right.

The model is good looking, but the clothes compared to the environment look a bit... eh... boring I would say

Kenney, Nick is right, you should be careful. Especially the last pic will increase the traffic on the site, I guess...

If I were the vogue editor Id think of this as publicity for vogue. Im hearing about this magazine for the first time.

That's pretty much a whole article reproduced, which is really not on at all, but --- its for the mods to decide, not me to argue!

(so I'll stop )

It's the most famous fashion magazine of the world, you can compare it maybe to the New York Times as a daily newspaper. But I guess more people know about Vogue than NYT
