Dark and gritty, the 10 Magazine Winter/Spring 2012 cover shoot shows a side of top model Candice Swanepoel that many rarely get to see. She may have channeled her tough, sensual and even dark sides in photoshoots before, but this editorial takes it to a rather creepy level. It is not blatantly eerie, but there are elements that will send a slight chill down people's spine.
The 10 Magazine Winter/Spring 2012 cover shoot was lensed by photographer Gregory Harris. Going hand in hand with a second cover shoot, which stars model Crystal Renn, it is part of the Rio issue. While the magazine describes her as a "sexy vixen/Scarlett O’Hara dressed in Giorgio Armani" on the cover, the accompanying photoshoot is much darker with a Gothic undertone. Not to mention sexier.
