Vogue's Alice in Wonderland by Annie Leibovitz

 You may have guessed by the title of this blog that I have a thing for Lewis Carroll's famous writings "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" & "Through the Looking-Glass"

Some may say nonsense but I say wonderful!

As a child I was always a dreamer and I guess I still am...

I loved the wildness of Alice in Wonderland

& I very much related to being "curiouser & curiouser"

I dressed up as Alice for Book Week in Kindergarten

and my first dance on stage was as the White Rabbit at age 3

(will have to dig out the photos at some stage!)

I came across these amazing images shot for Vogue by the amazing Annie Leibovitz

of model Natalia Vodianova as Alice

This is my favourite photo!

If you could have a special power, what would it be?

Growing & shrinking like Alice?

The Cheshire Cat is my favourite character!

That's Jean Paul Gaultier hiding up in the tree

Who wouldn't want to have a Mad Hatter's Tea party?

And I'll gladly take tea in that Christian Lacroix Haute Couture dress thank you!

I just love flamingos

Into the Looking Glass she goes...

 All photos from Vogue.com and photographed by Annie Leibovitz

Have you seen "Imagine" Annie Leibovitz: Life Through a Lens?

An inspiring documentary of the life & work of one of the world's most iconic photographers.

Definitely a must-see.

"Alice! a childish story take,
And with a gentle hand
Lay it where Childhood's dreams are twined
In Memory's mystic band,
Like pilgrim's withered wreath of flowers
Plucked in a far-off land."

 All in The Golden Afternoon - Lewis Carroll 

Hopefully you've enjoyed these images as much as me.
Until next time... I'm off to paint the roses red...
