Soprano Alexandra Deshorties, dressed in the season's ethereal frocks, sings "Addio del passato" from La Traviata during her photo shoot with David Sims. (Opera fans will note that she's marking during this excerpt, i.e. singing at half-voice.) “I tried to give the clothes life,” says Deshorties, “and cover the gamut of the extreme human emotions that are represented in opera.” See the complete fashion portfolio here.
