AOC Refreshed: Models by Walker | Kerr by Munro | Werbowy by Testino

Updated and New Pre-2020 Fashion Stories and Campaigns

Model Gaggle by Tim Walker 2016

Tim Walker Captures Breasts Overload In 'Portrait of a Lady' For LOVE F/W 2016

Artistic photographer Tim Walker flashed 'Portrait of a Lady', a brilliant cultural fixation on all things womanly and especially women's breasts -- the bigger the better unless you are a fashion model. In that case, the French preferences rule.

Models Anna Cleveland, Eva Herzigova, Julia Hoomans, Kiki Willems, Lexi Boling, Molly Constable and actor India Salvor Menuez star in this hyper-sexualized, very proper editorial styled by Katie Grand for Love Magazine Fall/Winter 2016.

There's a problem among these Stepford ladies, however. Exhausted with all these projections and cultural expectations, revenge simmers close at hand. You have been warned! LOL

AOC cannot believe how many page views ‘Portrait of a Lady’ has received since it was posted in 2016.

Miranda Kerr by Tom Munro 2012

Miranda Kerr | Tom Munro | Vogue Italia October 2012 | A Real Beauty

Miranda Kerr took a walk on the wild side, trading her brunette tresses for blonde hair in Tom Munro’s sultry, black and white shoot ‘A Real Beauty’ for Vogue Italia.

The reason we call this a Labor of Love is that Munro’s images were only 500 px wide from 2012. Now we typically run a minimum of 1000 px and often larger. It is not easy tracking down larger versions of the images. We are not doing this feat for all the fashion images. Rather, we are choosing the best work — and we understand well what readers want to see.

Werbowy by Testino 2005
