Sometimes procrastinating on Tumblr can be a good thing!
I recently found this amazing shoot from ‘W’ magazine on my dashboard and literally stopped in my tracks. The publication is celebrating their 40th anniversary with a cover story encompassing the distinct styles of the past 4 decades, with 4 of the best actresses of the 21st Century – in my opinion anyway.
The 1970’s is embodied by Rooney Mara who is almost unrecognisable from her usual minimalist style for bold printed Prada, that ‘oh-so-in’ wide brim hat and Autumnal colours.
Mia Wasikowska takes on the boldest of the 4 decades – and my personal favourite – the 1980’s in a Balenciaga bustier and bright neon make up.
In Dolce & Gabbana is the ever alluring Scarlett Johanssen, taking on the edgier grunge trend of the 1990’s.
And finally a very chic, Tilda Swinton-esque take on the Noughties (I hate that word…) with Keira Knightley in forever classic Chanel.
Despite the striking differences in between the decades themselves, I love the overall theme of the spread and the other worldly green tint that ties the whole thing together. You can read more and see all of these images in glorious HQ here. I’ve also linked to each actress’ mini interview, just click on their names.
Keep on wishing…
