The Imagination Issue

In the November issue of Dazed & Confused, Martina Hoogland Ivanov photographs our cover girl Lily Cole, the star of Terry Gilliam’s new film, 'The Imaginarium of Dr Parnassus' in a series of stunning dreamlike images illustrated by Jo Ratcliffe.

The fashion stories this month focus on iconic periods of cinema, from the untamed spirit of rebellion in 50s Hollywood, to a painterly take on Tudor England and a Lynchian delve into the subconscious.
