May 13, 20169 yr Old editorial from Candy but i thought it was cool to share the story and also it's a nice throwback Quote NO LIMITS: MARIO TESTINO AND THE BIRTH OF CANDICE SWANEPOEL. How one trip to Copenhagen ignited a supermodel's career - and inspired a new exhibitation for the legandary photographer. In the summer of 2010, Mario Testino took Candice Swanepoel on a whirlwind trip to Copenhagen to shoot her first fashion editorial for VMAN. It was a racy shoot for the then-relatively unknown model, for which the buxom blonde stripped down and suited up in luxe leather with an army of blonde male counterparts. As the story goes with many of today's supers, Swanepoel's editorial introduction with Testino sparked a massive explosion in her career—setting her on a trajectory to become a household name (that same year, she was given her wings as an official Victoria's Secret Angel). Now, exactly six years later, the shoot will appear in Testino's exhibition, No Limits, in the same city in which it was photographed. The exhibition, on display today through September 18th at GL STRAND, highlights three pervasive themes in Testino's work, each with their own floor in the museum: fashion portraiture, nudes, and royal portraits mixed with high fashion images. The title of the exhibition comes from Testino's respect and admiration for the progressive and open-minded city, which he discovered while shooting with Spanepoel: “When in Copenhagen I feel a sense of freedom to be and do as you want… I have been attracted to it since the beginning… I did one of my favourite series for V Magazinethere on a very hot summer day and I was so inspired by the freedom of the people.” *Some nudity and see trough* Spoiler "Sex, studs and leather". "Splendor in the grass." "The bay of the bold." "Optical illusion." "Don't make a mesh." "The ultimate whiteout." "Do it in denim." "The blond and the beautiful." "Suit up and ship out." "Angels on wheels." "Get your leather on." vman.com/vmagazine.com
May 13, 20169 yr Thanks @Candylicious. I remember when that ed came out. The story is amazing, and she's worked SOOO hard since then to get where she is. Fun to look back, especially as she's prepping to start a whole new chapter with the baby.
