Jean Campbell Is Softly Hi-Voltage in 'Spring Awakening' for V Magazine #128

Model Jean Campbell is styled by Gro Curtis in V Magazine’s ‘Spring Awakening’ , a photographic ode to “the drama, the vibrancy, and the grandiosity that defines the artistry of fashion.” V’s Fashion Director Curtis says: “" . . . it shows how resilient designers are in these turbulent times.”/ Makeup by Val Garland; hair by Kei Terada

As greater darkness descends over America, Curtis bangs the drum for creative redemption coming out of chaos, sharing words that inspire.

"Beauty lies in many characters woman can use to her advantage. She can be innocent but playful in Simone Rocha, strong and seductive in Giorgio Armani, etheric in Dior, romantic in Erdem, or simply strange and avant-garde in Rick Owens. They say it’s darkest just before the dawn. I do believe this issue and this story is our dawn after almost a year in the dark."

Photographer Solve Sundbo has a deeply-intellectual understanding of womanly, darkness into light image concepts, making the Curtis-Sundsbo-Campbell pairing a good jolt of fashion optimism for hopeful, concerned spirits.
