Red Hot: Marion Cotillard for W Magazine December

Slightly strange, surreal and sexy, that's the besy way to describe Tim Walker's cover and editorial featuring Marion Cotillard for W's December issue - Walker is of course renowned for his creativity and vivid imagination which knows no boundaries, and if you haven't yet seen his exhibition of fashion photography/installations/props at London's Somerset House, then GO!

The W shoot, which is packed full of avant-garde haute couture and the teeny tiniest waist I have ever seen, includes pieces by Dior (coat and belt from Raf Simons collection, pic 1), Iris van Herpen's dress over a Dolce & Gabbana bodysuit (pic 2), a Lanvin coat and Gucci heels (pic 3), Valentino (pic 4), JPG and his line for La Perla lingerie (pic 5) and Chanel - body and jewellery (pic 6). 
All latex gloves and stockings featured in the story are by Atsuko Kudo, and talking of latex, it seems a rubbery (and slightly creepy) toy soldier is the latest must-have accessory this season...
