Gothic fantasy fashion meets haute couture in the Sophie Vlaming Vogue Taiwan October 2011 editorial. Shot by Swedish photographer Ceen Wahren, the stunning series, titled 'Dark Angel,' makes use of gorgeous edgy, fall fashions from the likes of Yohji Yamamoto, Vivienne Westwood, and Yves Saint Laurent.
Sporting ensembles that look like they've been pulled straight out of a Final Fantasy video game, Sophie is a true gritty, Gothic queen. In platform thigh-high boots, leather gloves and chains, the model is intimidatingly stunning and gorgeous. The mix of textiles and bold angles, especially in the metallic asymmetrical dress Sophie sports for one shot, makes this shoot a stand-out piece.
