Elle Magazine continues to use unconventional stylists for its October 2009 issue. For ‘Walk on the Wild Side,’ model-turned-designer Erin Wasson, takes a stab at styling.
The rebellious black and white editorial was shot by Alexei Hay and features actress Jaime King (you may recognize her from turns in Sin City and Pearl Harbor) in menswear inspired looks with a bohemian flair. Wasson outfitted King in looks from Miu Miu, Roberto Cavalli, Calvin Klein Collection and Fendi among many others (including her own collaborative line) to showcase a walk on the wild side.
