Tattoo Parlor Editorials

The W Korea May 2012 Photoshoot Stars an Inked Milou van Groesen

Model Milou van Groesen is getting all inked up in the W Korea May 2012 editorial. Set in a dark and dingy tattoo parlor, the photoshoot is very edgy. The model's platinum blond locks, embellished leather looks and overall aloof attitude add to the edgy element.

The W Korea May 2012 editorial was captured by photographer Gianluca Fontana. Styled by fashion editor Woo Lee, the Dutch beauty is bedecked in jewelry and outfitted sophisticated ensembles that feature the designs of such labels as Prada and Dolce & Gabbana, among others. The couture pieces are strangely at home in this unlikely setting. It shows the versatility high fashion is adopting of late. The stylish looks were finished by hairstylist Enrico Mariotti and makeup artist Adalberto P.
