Thom Kerr Shoots Ruby Jean Wilson for Black Magazine #20

— January 7, 2014 — Pop Culture
You feel as though you could actually touch the rich textures in this Black Magazine #20 pictorial. Photographer Thom Kerr captures the richness of leathers and brocades as they hang off of short-haired stunner Ruby Jean Wilson. Wilson plays an upscale lady very well, with her short hair styled in different do's and her intense lower-eyeliner with a radiant red lip.

The clothing in this Black Magazine #20 shoot screams luxury. Leathers, silks and brocades come together in bright colors and stunning styling. The camera does a good job of capturing all the expensive textures, making it seem as though you cold easily reach out and feel the wrinkles in the leathers and bumps on the brocade. Some of the designers responsible for the amazing pieces are Louis Vuitton, Dior, Prada and Miu Miu.
