Carine Roitfeld: Mosaiques Orientales

In the editorial "Mosaïques Orientales,” Carine Roitfeld teamed with supermodel Helena Christensen and photographer Friedemann Hauss for the June 1990 issue of ELLE France and it looks a lot like The Night Porter filmed against the backdrop of the cavern of Ali Baba. I love the names that Carine imagined for each of the photos: “La préféré du sultan”... “Shéhérazade 90”... “ Divine”... “Les motifs font impression”... Helena Christensen is radiant amongst a mélange of jewelry and treasured tile as fashion and art blend to form a memorable mosaic against the blue sky.

Helena is probably the most beautiful model in the world .... because some can not keep up today!

Fee, it is so nice to hear from you, your comments always make me smile. :)

I love the way Carine styled her for the shoot as well, Helena's natural beauty shines in this context.
