Kirsi Pyrhonen and Audrey Marnay | Tim Walker | Vogue Italia October 2011 | Mechanical Dolls

Models Kirsi Pyrhonen and Audrey Marnay play around as ‘Mechanical Dolls’ in Tim Walker’s new editorial for Vogue Italia’s October 2011 issue. Kirsi and Audrey are marionettes par excellence, with all the needed ‘fashion and beauty must haves’. Jacob K styles an ageless, global vision of women as fashion puppets from Europe to Asia. It’s Vogue Italia, and of course, there’s a sublminal meaning to this editorial.  Models.com notes a ‘sly nod to drag legends the Cockettes’, that psychedelic drag queen troupe founded in the late 1960s.
