Innocence Lost: Carey Mulligan for 'W'

In Nina Ricci

Actress Carey Mulligan takes a surprisingly sensual turn on the cover of the January 2012 issue of W magazine to promote her risque new film Shame. The rest of the shoot is far more tame, but it is beautiful and cinematic with a '60s feel and a hint of sorrow. Shot by Michael Thompson and styled by Edward Enninful. See the rest of the images after the jump.
