Fashion week might be a celebration of garments, but a bevy of Victoria’s Secret models used the occasion to fête portraits of their unclothed bodies, captured by photographer Russell James in his new book, Angels.
Lily Aldridge, Adriana Lima, and Candice Swanepoel flocked to New York’s Stephan Weiss Studios on Wednesday night, where an exhibit of the photos runs through September 16. Their black-and-white nudes—along with images of Karlie Kloss, Doutzen Kroes, and Alessandra Ambrosio—lined the walls as they mingled with guests, including Hugh Jackman and Ben Stiller.
Below, take a peek at three stunning images from the book, which will be out October 15.
