Regal Goth Editorials

The Rika Magazine Issue 7 Photoshoot Stars an Edgy Jessica Stam

Model Jessica Stam gets an edgy makeover for the Rika Magazine Issue 7 editorial. Embracing a regal Gothic look, she could very well be the queen of the underworld or a dark fairy princess. Although there are some light and even vibrant fashion pieces thrown into the mix, the black backdrop, berry lips and moody eyes darken the editorial in a way that they just can't compete.

The Rika Magazine Issue 7 editorial was shot by American photographer Chadwick Tyler, who is known for his evocative signature style. Stylist Sarah Cobb concentrated on putting together a wardrobe filled with rich colors and offbeat pairings. The Canadian beauty dons the sparkling pants, bubble vests and equestrian hats without batting an eye. Full of coy attitude, the glamorous looks were finished with red-tipped hair.
