Mona Johannesson – Elle Sweden – August 2010

The retro allure of Mona Johannesson in August’s Elle Sweden is every bit the definition of ethereal. From the full skirts to the cashmere cardigans and classic undergarments styled by Lisa Lindqwister, photographer Jimmy Backius captures a glamorously idealized housewife. Between the upswept chignon, the string of pearls and knee high stockings, the enticement to return to days gone by is very inviting.
