Slicked back hair, red lips and sequin bottoms evoke an alluring and powerful female in this shoot styled by Z. Berhan Yilmaz. The former fashion editor has united black-tie chic with womanly sensuality in ‘Eveningwear Fireworks’, photographed by Mehmet Erzincan. Single accessories and crimson accents pop off of model Paulina Wyka’s flashes of milky skin.
I particularly love the artistic choice to pair a glam beaded-bodice gown with black knee-high boots. Z. Berhan Yilmaz flawlessly pulls together his concept of “masculine-as-feminine” formalwear in his ‘Eveningwear Fireworks’ portfolio.
