Anja Rubik Debuts 25 Magazine's "Erotic" Issue

The newest issue of 25 magazine, which Anja Rubik helms with her husband Sasha Knezevic, features 300 pages of fashion photos tinged with an "erotic twist."

The newest issue of 25 magazine, which Anja Rubik helms with her husband Sasha Knezevic, features 300 pages of fashion photos tinged with an "erotic twist."

The couple launched the issue at a party Wednesday night in Cannes. Rubik described the issue as "more of a book than a magazine" and said that its ad-free pages are dedicated to women photographers including Annie Leibovitz, Ellen von Unwerth, and Corrine Day.

"It's mainly a fashion magazine, but with an erotic twist," Rubik explained, adding that she took inspiration from '70s issues of Viva, Playboy, and Penthouse. "I think it's balanced quite well. There's a lot of fashion. The stylists had a lot of liberty to play around with clothes, and there was no list of credits they had to follow or anything like that."

In fact, whoever styled the cover photo — which Knezevic tweeted yesterday — opted not to use clothes at all. The same goes for a 15-second teaser video clip for the issue called Kiss, seen below.

Rubik and Knezevic started working on 25 in 2009, when one of Knezevic's friends acquired it and asked him for help. Knezevic is now the magazine's editor-in-chief and creative director, and Rubik serves as fashion and art director. Take a look at some of their work below.

Met Gala: Anja Rubik

Anja Rubik definitely made a hot impression at the Met Gala tonight — the model stunned in a supersexy white Anthony Vaccarello gown, and got a proverbial "leg up" on Angelina Jolie's Oscars look with her sultry red carpet poses while walking with the designer.

Anja Rubik definitely made a hot impression at the Met Gala tonight — the model stunned in a supersexy white Anthony Vaccarello gown, and got a proverbial "leg up" on Angelina Jolie's Oscars look with her sultry red carpet poses while walking with the designer. Anja didn't wear much jewelry, save for chandelier earrings and a slinky pair of black chain-strap pumps. Though the look is definitely heavy on sex appeal, Anja isn't the first star to gravitate toward Vaccarello's cutout designs — Karlie Kloss and Gwyneth Paltrow are also fans of his. So, what do you think of Anja's look; was it too much, or just enough?

What to Wear Tomorrow: Try Gucci's Purple, Green, and Gold For Mardi Gras

Sure, it's been a few seasons since Gucci's Spring 2011 collection debuted at Milan Fashion Week, but it made such an iconic impact that it still leaves trend remnants today.

Sure, it's been a few seasons since Gucci's Spring 2011 collection debuted at Milan Fashion Week, but it made such an iconic impact that it still leaves trend remnants today. The fusion of purple, green, and gold went straight off the catwalk and onto the hottest Hollywood starlets like Olivia Wilde, Kerry Washington, and model Anja Rubik. Seeing as how Mardi Gras is tomorrow, and its colors are purple, green, and gold, why not draw inspiration from Gucci by fusing all three in your own personal way? You can go ultra chic in an emerald blouse tucked into a purple pencil skirt with a gold belt, or you can work it casual with a purple tank, green jeans, and gold jewels. If you're too color-shy to rock this color trio on a regular day, then let Mardi Gras be your excuse to experiment! Below are some of our favorite pieces to get in on the bold look. Have fun with it but remember to keep your look as streamlined as Gucci did.
