Since the fashion and photography worlds are currently very taken with candid, gritty beauty, it is nice to see a photo spread like Mulholland Drive that is all about old glamor and elegant styles. Inspired by either the actual road in Los Angeles or even the movie of the same name, the Mulholland Drive editorial seems to belong to an entirely different era. Of course, I do like how the fashion is pretty contemporary in its bold colors and sensual lines.
Photographed by Kevin Sinclair, the Mulholland Drive photo spread was shot for Vestal Magazine. Featuring the show-stopping fashion designs of Mattus Van Bergen, the shoot was beautifully styled by Alex Van Der Steen. The Mulholland Drive editorial stars Valeria Dmitrienko.
