Charmed by the innate soulfulness and revelry of Spanish culture, Testino worked alongside editor Yolanda Sacristán on the theme Celebration for the December 2012 special edition of Spanish Vogue. From an interpretation of the traditional La Tomatina festival to the more contemporary La Movida, the pages bring together an array of figures from the Spanish elite.

Testino has been invited to creative direct and photograph numerous special editions of Vogue magazine to date. Testino works closely with the respective editors of each title to develop a theme that will dictate everything inside the issue. With the support of his team at MARIOTESTINO+, he conceives a bespoke treatment to the art direction, applying conceptual typography and a unique layout appropriate to each theme. Themes have included Sex, The Body, Blondes and Obsession.
