cr fashion book Issue 4 – “Brides” by Anthony Maule?!????!!!

Honestly, while browsing cr fashion book issue 4 last week end the “Brides” story by Anthony Maule did not catch my eye. For me it was quiet clear the issue is about fairy tales and of course a ghost story has to be included, especially if the editor is Carine Roitfeld. And as the editorial read this one was inspired by Tim Burtons “Corpse Bride”. And to be further honest for me there is nothing fashionable about a woman sitting on a grave stone with bare breasts etc. so I really skipped this fast.

However, during lunch at the beginning of  last week my mother, who had bought a copy of the magazine herself, asked me on my opinion regarding exactly that shooting.

Her thoughts behind it – in cr fashion book Carine Roitfeld usually deals with aspects that touch her privately. E.g. issue 1 for fall 2012 was dedicated to rebirth and inspired by the birth of her granddaughter Romy Nicole in May the same year. At the end of 2013 Julia, Carine Roitfeld`s daughter separated from her longterm boyfriend and father of Romy, Robert Konjic! So does Roitfeld`s scarry take on the spring summer bridal season really signal something deeper – the unsatisfied longing of so many woman for happy marriage and child birth!?

What do you think just a ghost story or something deeper?
