Divine Comedy by Dazed digital
In league with the Divine: Catherine McNeil takes centre stage of our May issue, dressed in couture surrounded by a hedonistic court in this exclusive film by Jeff Bark, styled by senior fashion editor Robbie Spencer. McNeil is the Australian model going through her own renaissance, a fixture of all the top tier AW13 catwalks from New York to Paris, walking in nearly 50 shows. Yet away from the camera, she deflects costume drama, telling Dazed: "My style is very simple. Lots of black tights, flats are a must and a bright sweater here and there." Modesty's appealing when your day job deals with the sublime.
