There's a definite contrast between the model's feminine face and the masculine fashion of Miss Vogue by Paola Kudacki. Exquisite beauty Carmen Kass has undergone a styling transition that swathes the fair-skinned beauty in washed out and unwieldy ensembles.
Featured within the pages of the Vogue Paris March 2011 issue, these faded photographs only enhance the penetrating appeal of the model's unique look. Bright blue eyes match the blue jean of her denim overalls and collared shirt, while her white mesh top and long sleeves make her light complexion glow.
The rugged appearance of the concrete backdrop augments the icy atmosphere of the set, but the warm winsome impression of Carmen Kass lets all harsh perceptions fall flat. Behind the masculine facade, Miss Vogue by Paola Kudacki emanates with femininity.
