    i don't know if it's the way they're fitted on her or the lighting or what, but some of the dresses look better on lucy liu than the models.

    hmm i'm not quite sure what to make of this spread. the mcqueen and christian lacroix gown didn't really deliver the same kind of air the first two did.

  3. Caroline // July 22, 2008 4:15 AM  

    i love that white one....minute the white tights

  4. Nay'Chelle // July 22, 2008 4:28 AM  

    The first and second dresses are love.

    And I would love to trade links!

    The Givenchy dress is divine and I love how they used it in the editorial!

  6. Lauren // July 22, 2008 9:43 AM  

    I adore this editorial! It reminds me of the Olympic-themed spread in Teen Vogue a couple months ago, but this is way better.

    I love the Lucy Lui pictures!

    I really would have liked to see less of the flag...it was really distracting.

  16. nv // July 22, 2008 4:17 PM  

    i love the whole spread, i think I'm going to buy this issue. I love lucy liu!

  17. choubelle // July 22, 2008 4:52 PM

    i love this spread! i think my nagging magazine addiction might be kicking in again..

  20. *N* // July 22, 2008 6:01 PM  

    the way you put them all together is great!! xx *N*

  21. Misha // July 22, 2008 6:20 PM  

    the archer one looks like a potential outfit a caracter would wear, thus ending up as a favorite of mine, in a fantasy steampunk movie or something... Like a spiffy and modern Marion in Robin Hood!

  22. Hunters Glory // July 22, 2008 6:20 PM  

    These are some great pix!
    Very very good post!

  23. Cupcakes and Cashmere // July 22, 2008 6:31 PM

  28. J e s s i c a // July 22, 2008 9:16 PM  

    Oh i love her ! Lucy Lui is so beautiful and she seems like such a natural, down to earth woman. I definatly agree the dresses look better on her than on the models.
    thanks for posting this was a great post !

  29. Gloria // July 22, 2008 10:36 PM  

    I love lucy liu. But somehow these photos don't really work for me..

  30. Little Peaché // July 23, 2008 2:44 AM

    consider yourself linked back!

  32. steelcloset // July 23, 2008 3:21 AM  

    This photospread is hilarious. I feel like you can see her holding some smile back in some of the photos.

  33. Dapper Kid // July 23, 2008 7:59 AM  

    Oh wow she looks amazing!!

  34. Cherry // July 23, 2008 8:05 AM  

    Awesome collection of beautiful spring season dresses.

  35. Kristin // July 23, 2008 9:50 AM  

    i thought the spread worked well with her. it was very innovative.

    hate to ask this, but it's kinda crappy when people go on the blog list and visit an abandoned blog... lol; i know i hate it. if you wouldn't mind, could you switch my blog (live.speak.breathe.fashion) to not so prim and proper located at www.kristinPRIM.co.nr?
    i know, this is kinda rude/weird, but i would hate for people to visit an abandoned blog.
    thanks so much!! if you're interested, i could link you up at my new one. let me know!!

  36. B. // July 23, 2008 1:18 PM  

    beautiful. the carolina herrera outfit, i didn't think would really look good on anyone but lucy liu proved me wrong she looks breathtaking!

  37. Blicious // July 23, 2008 1:41 PM

  40. Savvy Gal // July 23, 2008 4:22 PM  

    great post! love lucy liu's edgy style. she looked fabulous, just stunning. i wondered how many time she fell off the balance beam on heels. : )

  41. The Clothes Horse // July 23, 2008 4:34 PM  

    I love the photoshoot and the styling is fantastic. Every shot is perfect in my eyes!

  42. emma // July 23, 2008 11:52 PM  

    oh i love these, exspecially the archery one

  43. Meg // July 24, 2008 8:24 AM  

    She looks like she'd be fun to work with! I know she picks somewhat corny movies to star in, but she's just adorable. I love the one with the javelin and the archery one, she looks amazing.

  44. Hailey @ stylesymmetry.com // July 24, 2008 12:39 PM

  48. Songy // July 25, 2008 9:22 AM  

    hi.. thank you so much for putting together the original runway pics against the magazine shots. I initially saw Lucy's images in AsainCajuns' blog. It's much more interesting to see the originals on models. well done.

    ciao

  49. Always In Style // July 25, 2008 1:57 PM  

    I love that you juxtaposed the runway shots with the magazine shoot - the dresses get new life breathed into them by Lucy.

  50. Tina :) // July 25, 2008 3:01 PM
