1. Halle Bailey Lands Two Stunning Magazine Covers
With the countdown to The Little Mermaid entering theaters less than a month away, the promotional campaign for Disney’s highly-anticipated live-action remake is in full swing. Ahead of its release, Halle Bailey stuns in Fendi Haute Couture for the cover of V Magazine’s V142 Summer 2023 edition. Lensed by fashion photographer Rob Rusling and styled by Anna Trevelyan, Halle Bailey strikes an ethereal pose wearing Fendi Haute Couture on the cover.
Rocking the best looks of the couture season, Bailey’s shoot features pieces by Chanel, Armani Prive, Dior, Valentino, Schiaparelli and Jean Paul Gaultier by Haider Ackermann. Complete with accessories by Bulgari’s high-jewelry offerings, the real-life siren’s mermaid shoot gives an “aquatic ethereal” aesthetic.
Photographer Rob Rusling notably used the help of AI technology with artist Nik Gundersen to imagine the underwater world seen in Bailey’s cover story.
