Paz Vega Models Spring Couture For Madame Figaro

Paz Vega for Madame Figaro
March 2013

Stunning Spanish actress Paz Vega lends her exotic looks to the pages of French fashion magazine Madame Figaro for their March 2013 issue. Paz is exceptionally styled in a host of spellbinding looks from the Spring 2013 runways of Paris Couture Week. Some of these outfits would be impossible (and a little outlandish) to wear on the red carpet, so it's always a fashion treat to see them in editorial.



Paz is radiant in a ruby red fully sequined sculpted peplum top & maxi skirt by Armani Privé.


Paz is encompassed in a celestial white caped, sheer chiffon gown by Stephane Rolland Couture, featuring a bandeau top and mini skirt with embellished motif. This is art in motion.

Dark romance takes a new turn as the 'Spanglish' actress poses in a nude Valentino gown with black tulle embroidered overlay, voluminous skirt and ruffled strapless neck.


Keeping in with the spirit of Spring, Paz wears a sheer black tea-dress with flaired skirt, embroidered with a garden of miniature florals, by Christian Dior Couture. Matching sheer gloves and a pair of gold Christian Louboutin sandals style this look.


No couture editorial could be complete without a little (or in this case, a massive feathered flurry) of Chanel. Paz wears an adapted rose pastel gown from the Chanel Couture SS13 runway, which boasts a high-low hemline skirt in shards of feathery fabric. Black fingerless gloves and embroidered boots finalize her extravagant look.


Glittering in three metallic gold looks, Paz shines in couture dresses by Maison Martin Margiela, Atelier Versace and Alexandre Vauthier.


Adding her unique charm to the editorial, Paz stands tall in a black and white ensemble by Giambattista Valli, which has a bell-shaped jacket and multi-ruffled mini skirt.

Wrapped in a spell of delicate femininity, Paz is beguiling in a white netted tulle and beaded lace confection by Alexis Mabille Couture. I like how the chic cropped white trench coat balances out the sweetness and frivolity of the skirt.


This has to be one of the most enigmatic looks from Spring Couture Week 2013. Science fiction meets high fashion in this unconventional piece of art by Dutch designer Iris van Herpen. Thousands of flexible fibres stand out to create this astounding three-dimensional dress. As extreme as it seems, this not a look that easily escapes one's memory.


The editorial ends on an enchanting note, with the Spanish beauty looking extraordinary in a lilac embellished Elie Saab gown, flecked with floral appliqués.


Which is your favourite Spring 2013 Couture look from this editorial?

Gorgeous!!! Outrageous designs but I love them!
Much love, Bailey from Vanilla Blonde

katie said...

I love that your brought up the fact that some of these gowns work better for editorials than they would on the red carpet. I love this aspect of fashion where in the editorials a story is told through the clothes, the artistic aspect of the gowns comes out so much more than what you would notice if they were worn on the red carpet. (Heh, I think a few of these gowns would land an actress on the worst dressed list if she wore them to a awards show! I'm looking you, crazy wild dress by Iris van Herpen!)

I do just adore that black gown by Valentino, that is just a stunning dress and I would wear it everyday. (I would look silly but who cares in a dress that beautiful?)

margaret cruzemark said...

I adore her. She is amazing. I like her more than Penelope Cruize!

Rakhshan said...

you're right, all the outfits even the most freaky ones look stunning in the editorial or maybe its because of the gorgeous model!! have a great week ahead Sam!!xx

Lilli said...

Hi Sam! Hope you have a nice weekend! I havent seen this editorial yet, she looks so hot with these gowns! I agree, they are pretty particular and should be hard to wear on the red carpet, except for the last one by Elie Saab! My fav looks are the ones by Valentino, Dior, Versace and Elie Saab indeed:) Kisses my dearest, have a great start of the week!!:*

Silvia Negretti said...

She looks stunning in all these haute couture dresses,just like a model, and it's pretty unusual for an actress!^^
Love Valentino, Dior and Elei Saab dresses!!!

I love that Christian Dior dress... oh my goodness. It's so sheer and spring-y! Haha, but really, the detail on that is incredible.

Natalia | Look-A-Porter said...

Such a beautiful editorial! I kept going from image to image thinking "I like this one. And this one. And this one... ":) I adore the fact that it's not just about the dresses but also emotions - she looks different on every photograph.
If I had to choose... Love the movement on the first photo (Armani), the adorable Dior (she makes dress look tons better than it does on the runway), Valli, Mabille and Elie Saab.

Unknown said...

Absolutely love it!!! I have to say everything looks much better on Paz! And the last Elie Saabs dress is fab. I wish one day I could buy something from his collection. He is my favorite designer of all times. :)

I like Paz Vega, and the whole editorial brings together a lot of beautiful looks, but my favorite would be the one by the Dutch designer Iris van Herpen.

Wow, the last dress is really a dream! Any other like A-line is my thing, you know! And flowers! There were some that were not wearable, at least I could not :) But she is stunning! Hope you had a great weekend! And week ahead as well! I read the Friday Frills today and thought "I said something I regreted, on Saturday!" But that is past now! I went to the north, without computer, as usual!

I love the editorial version of the design piece just as much as the runway one, and this rarely happens.. the clothes look so magical!
Oh and I've been in school for a couple weeks now, hence the lack of posts.. have a lovely week ahead too!

I LOVE Madame Figaro and its editorials! I used to subscribe to this amazing magazine when I was living in France, and now I really miss it (so at least, I follow it religiously on the internet :) This is a stunning editorial, and you're absolutely right: these gowns are not really red carpet-appropriate, but they look amazing in the pictures!

Hope your week is off to a great start! (and I know I still owe you an email, I'm sorry for the delay! I'm on it :)

Wow, I love the Christian Dior Couture piece the best! These pictures are stunning. I really wish actresses would take more risk and wear some of these couture pieces on the red carpet. I mean, why not? Who are these designers making them for anyway if their clients won't wear them? And Paz Vega...va va voom!
