Kenneth loves boxing
Everyone has already noticed it in latest Vogue Russia. Kenneth Cappello's editorial featuring Marcelina Sowa is kinda reminiscent of one of his previous work with Jessica Stam. Boxing gloves, sporty atmosphere on a white background and so on. Everything looks the same. Really ? In a way I'd say yes but the "vibe" isn't exactly identical. Think about the models. Stam's free-and-easy look is completely different from Marcelina's shy and youthful appeal. I just don't get the same feeling when I see the two pictures and after all, didn't he do a third editorial on this theme with Tiiu Kuik ? Technical work can remain the same and resemblance at first sight can be striking, it doesn't prevent the editorial from being unique. Or at least, it doesn't prevent me from enjoying it !
