Desert Motel Editorials

The Heide Lindgren You Inspire Shoot is Roughly Elegant

Set in a desert by a dry and dusty motel, the Heide Lindgren You Inspire editorial is scorchingly stylish and subtly sensual. The rough and raw backdrop accentuate the feminine and sophisticated outfits. The colorful ensembles pop out against the brown, sandy scenes, while Lindgren herself stands out like a Prada bag in Walmart.

The Heide Lindgren You Inspire editorial was shot by Budapest-based photographer Zoltan Tombor. Appearing in the Mail on Sunday’s biannual fashion magazine March 2012 issue, the American beauty was styled by Caroline Baker. Baker pulled ladylike pieces from fashion houses such as Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Alberta Ferretti and Bulgari. Each outfit would be perfect for a resort vacation. Her lush curls by hair stylist Joseph DiMaggio and bronzed skin by makeup artist Ryan McNight finish off the elegant looks.
