The Vogue Russia October 2012 issue features this stunning editorial piece photographed by Patrcik Demarchelier.
Model Frida Gustavsson sports a series of striking fur pieces to complement each outstanding look. Styled by Ekaterina Mukhina, the editorial features rich, dark hues that channel a mysterious vibe. The beauty story pairs well with this piece as the model sports a short bob and raven-crimson lips. This makes for a fierce femme fatale motif that resonates well with strong, independent women.
The editorial boasts a type of opulence that is best executed by Vogue Russia. Nothing characterizes a take on tasteful excess like fur, lavish jewels and ornate garments. This October 2012 fashion story features pieces by Dolce & Gabbana, Emilio Pucci and Givenchy.
