Clad in chain-mail, structured armor, leather, and lace, Kristen McMenamy broods like a hellion in W Magazine's September 2012 editorial "The Dame of Thrones".
| I love how barbed wire and a conical Philip Treacy transparent head-piece (#4) give this medieval Britain thing a whole seam-in-time feel. I remember hearing an interview with Monty Python's Michael Palin that a lot of the chain-mail worn in The Holy Grail was actually just knitted creations spray painted silver (sounds soggy). Craig Lawrence's metallic yarn chain mail shirt and pants (#3) are very convincing and wearable... something maybe Daphne Guinness would don to check out a litter of dalmatian puppies (or whatever it is that she does with herself). Her inspired silver glove by Shaun Leane (#8) certainly seems useful for glancing blows from little doggie paws. | mmm | Photography: Tim Walker Styled by: Jacob K Hair and Headpieces: Julien d'Ys Makeup: Val Garlande |
