French Revue de Modes os greeting spring not with one bright and beautiful cover but twelve. Swide's own backstage crush Tao Okamoto is one of those rainbow beauties.

A classic Japanese beauty with a Sicilian accent; Tao Okamoto in a corset from Dolce & Gabbana's S/S 10 collection. Shot by Thierry Le Goues.

While Tao had been on the Swide radar for a while we really fell in love all over again backstage this past fashion week: lovely and quiet with a book in hand, adorable and available when prompted to answer silly interview questions... And that skin! Miles of fair perfection without a single pore in sight. We're positively smitten!

The brains behind the beauty: Tao also writes and keeps a blog she updates on a regular basis. should you be fortunate enough to read Japanese - of if you just want to look at the pretty photos: http//ameblo.jp/okamoto-tao!

You could forgive us for thinking that Scarlett Johansson and Matthew McConaughey were on some sort luxurious date, judging by the way the stars have their arms draped lovingly around each other. But is all as it seems?
