The Numéro Tokyo January/February issue features the editorial ‘Ironically Chic’ that centers on an outlandish female with relentless style. The mix of colorful and monochromatic shots revolve around Felipe Mendes’s styling choices. Androgynous model Patricia van der Vliet rocks a jagged bowl cut and some ferocious ensembles. Her face and body type are ideal for an edgy and eclectic shoot like this.
As a whole, the editorial features a mixture of retro, vintage and punk-inspired looks. Felipe put Patricia in a range of apparel to keep with the namesake theme of the editorial and to blur the lines between old and new fashions. Designers used in the shots include anyone from Alexander Wang to Chanel.
The Numéro Tokyo January/February issue is an edgy rendition of feminine eclecticism.
