Vogue UK March 2014 Cover

I knew it was only a matter of time before this came out! Daria covers the March 2014 issue of Vogue UK photographed by Mario Testino. It's her second time covering the British version of Vogue in less than a year (her last was in September 2013) and her fifth cover for the magazine overall!

Preview | Balenciaga Spring/Summer 2014 Campaign with Daria Werbowy

Balenciaga Sleek – Leading model Daria Werbowy sports platinum blonde tresses for the spring-summer 2014 campaign from Balenciaga. The Canadian beauty, who recently appeared on the February cover of Harper’s Bazaar, poses for Steven Klein wearing a pink silk gazer “Winged” dress, and leather top and matching skirt designed by Alexander Wang. Jacob K worked as stylist for the new advertisements with hair by Paul Hanlon and makeup by Diane Kendal.

Daria Werbowy Ensnared by Ivy for Balenciaga’s Spring 2014 Campaign

Balenciaga’s ominous Spring 2014 campaign leaves Daria Werbowy tangled in ivy and us wanting more. To me, this ad seems reminiscent of Gothic literature like The Fall of the House of Usher, that creepy Edgar Allen Poe story that you were forced to read in high school. Although shot by Steven Klein in a New York studio (not a haunted house), the vibe I’m getting is not off base. Balenciaga’s creative director, Alexander Wang, told WWD that the crawling plants and haunting shadows give “a touch of mystery and dark attraction.” “I wanted to convey a sense of strength and knowingness. Daria is definitely not naïve,” Wang said.

Maybe it’s my obsession with American Horror Story, but I imagine Werbowy is portraying the impossibly chic mistress of the dark and moody house. As the house’s vines ensnare her, she methodically plans her escape, while keeping her artfully painted Merlot pout intact.

Daria Werbowy: The Edge of Spring - Harpers Bazaar cover+editorials

Who's the fashion icon of this century? Of course, Daria!

See her new editorials and her new cover for Harper's Bazaar on our site in high quality.

I feel like in the past year the dynamics around the magazine industry have certainly started to shift. People just don't seem to be as enamoured with the celebrity as they were in the decade post 9/11. Last year Kate Upton made it onto the cover of Vogue, and just last month Joan Smalls made it onto Elle. How refreshing is it to see someone on the cover who doesn't have a cookbook to push or a movie to promote? I say let the models reclaim their covers!

Editorial wise its not really the most interesting shoot I've ever seen but I'm just excited to have this issue in my hands. Daria has an interview inside as well which you can read here. ETA: If you didn't think she could be any more awesome she watches Game of Thrones. (Hopefully reads it too!).
