Dark and mystical are two words that pop to mind when seeing the Numéro Tokyo November 2011 issue. The spread has model Chloe Memisevic sporting a world-renowned collection by Donna Karan.
Captured by Yasunari Kikuma, the shoot portrays Chloe in a stoic, ladylike manner. Styled by Masami Tanaka, Chloe sports vintage dresses and a '20s hairstyle. She is prim, proper and perfectly put together in this intriguing shoot. Using dark backdrops, the shoot has the vintage vibe sweeping through the editorial, and suggests that the retro season is back in full swing.
It is a hard task to bring back the vintage vibe in modern photoshoots, but the Numero Tokyo November 2011 issue achieves this feat with utmost success.
