‘So Fern, So Nah’ Toni Garrn by Alexi Lubomirski for Vogue Germany December 2012

Written by Guest Blogger Robyn Germanese
So Fern, So Nah, is German for So Far So Close! And, with a breath of fresh air, we are transported to Mongolia in the December issue of Vogue Germany. Rosy- cheeked Toni Garrn adorned in ornate layers stares defiantly into Alexi Lubomirski’s lens, multiple braids atop her head, in an angelic aura that seems to lack makeup! Stylist and Editor for Vogue Germany Christiane Arp, creates a well- researched visual at once, both costume and fashion. The head wraps are elegant, powerful, and no doubt we will see versions on these in the months to come. Long billowing kimono sleeves, gray, layers, wide obi belts and wools, magnify the comfort and raw materials needed, to live a life in harsh climates. An imperial tone is marked by models stances, a live falcon and decorative aspects, while the crisp winter makes for raw skin, bleached eyebrows, and of course clothes by Antonio Marras, Michalsky, Hermès, Hannibal, Yukata Kimono Berlin, Damir Doma, Falke and Pearl River.
