Socialite-Turned-Model Editorials

The T Vestal Magazine Fashion Story Stars Tinsley Mortimer

The 'T' Vestal magazine editorial is featured in the publication's May 2012 issue and stars fashionable New York city socialite Tinsley Mortimer. Tinsley takes on the role of model, trading in her usual posh look for an edgier aesthetic that embraces rockstar-inspired styling.

Photographer Kevin Sinclair captures the fashion star in a series of stunning portraits in the 'T' Vestal magazine editorial. The blonde beauty sports long tresses by Loreal Paris hair stylist Elisa and alluring makeup by artist Fumi.

Tinsley proves that she can pull off just about anything as she shows off a wardrobe styled by Lo'Renzo Hill White. Lo'Renzo dresses the socialite in a slew of leather-clad looks, showcasing embellished accents, studded ornamentation and fringed detailing fit for a boho goddess.
