Walker's Homage to Sergei Diaghilev and his Ballets Russe

I think we are all agreed that Tim Walker is one of the most imaginative, creative and fabulous fashion photographer out there, and his new shoot "Russian Dolls" for Vogue's October issue does not disappoint, in fact I believe it is one of his best yet.

The shoot is a homage to Sergei Diaghilev's Ballets Russes and helps advertise the V&A's current exhibition displaying some of the remaining costumes, illustrations, music and set designs associated with the company (the exhibition runs until Jan 9th 2011, SEE IT NOW!) Walkers images are beautiful, provocative and succeed in capturing the shows unique, breathtaking style. Diaghilev is an inspiration to many designers, artists and composers and Tim Walker's photographs definitely succeed in reaching the standard of this amazing vision.
