Designer Daily: Zahia Dehar

Edited by Amanda Gabriele

Zahia Dehar isn’t your average, run-of-the-mill lingerie designer. In fact, she didn’t even begin her career in the fashion world; her name hit the spotlight when it was revealed she was a former underage prostitute. After claiming three French football stars had sex with her while younger than 18, her luck transformed. Not only did she launch own lingerie line with help from some of France’s greatest couturiers including François Tamarin, Bruno Legeron and Jean-Pierre Ollier, she’s been photographed modeling the collection by a range of talented artists. Karl Lagerfeld himself got behind the lens, saying it was fun to work with her, “like Vargas pinups.” The below collection was shot by Alix Malka for Vanity Fair - see the spread after the jump.

SPREAD UM: Behati Prinsloo By Alix Malka For Vogue Spain

Edited by Hillary Frazier

This tribal-like shoot is awesome. The jewelry (Louis Vuitton) is gorgeous, and perfectly balanced by the non-overbearing makeup.  Prinsloo looks flawless throughout the entire spread.

Spread: “Mag Hag” featuring Marcelina shot by Alix Malka for Numero Tokyo

Edited by Rebecca Alexander

Shot for Japanese fashionista bible, Numero Tokyo, the swirling curves and dramatic poses of model Marcelina Sowa are perfectly captured by photographer, Alix Malka, as she floats underwater. Obsessed by color, Malka’s images are suggestive of taste for rich, exuberant and sophisticated stylism.

Thanks WickedHalo for pointing this out.
