Tim Walker's Marvellous Tribute to Roald Dahl

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Actor Jamie Campbell  and Karen Elson

Continuing on with British Vogue's Fantastic Fashion Fantasy issue, Tim Walker shot an editorial tribute to the "marvellous, mischievous, magical world" of Roald Dahl, accompanied by a written piece by his great-granddaughter, model and author, Sophie Dahl. It featured Tim Burton and Helena Bonham Carter, but my favourites of this vast spread happened to not include them! What I love most about Tim Walker's photos is how he incorporates florals, especially the gorgeous flower fields he chooses so often as backdrops. I must find out where they are and run through them!
