"For Vanity Fair's October Issue-to honor the magazine's birth 100 years ago, in 1913-sexy was the word as we resurrected a Monroe pose and introduced a new logo (smart, slim, serif!). Not to be outdone by the magazine's stately new font, model Kate Upton channeled screen icon Marilyn Monroe as she pouted and posed with a congratulatory birthday cake for photographer Annie Leibovitz. Happy Birthday, indeed."














I really like this picture. I enjoy it because it is very vintage and old looking. She looks like she came from somewhere like the 50's or 60's from her hair in pins and her body suit. It's clever how she is holding a cake with a candle in the middle. The background is green/blank which makes her stand out. Her lips bring attention to her face, while her outfit brings attention to her body. It is an anniversary so there is a cake with a candle. The lighting is directed to her face mainly.
