The Amica 'Omaggio a Cocteau' editorial is a tribute to Jean Cocteau, a French poet, novelist, dramatist, designer, playwright, artist and filmmaker. Known for his haunting avant-garde style, the photoshoot does justice to his work through the darkly rich setting and eerie eccentricities. The abstract element present throughout showcases the modern wardrobe wonderfully, imbuing it with much character, no matter how creepy or strange.
Shot by London-based duo Sandrine Dulermo and Michael Labica of Absynth Photographic, the Amica 'Omaggio a Cocteau' editorial stars model Luize Salmgrieze. The typically blonde beauty was styled by Laurent Dombrowicz, who chose a range of patterned pieces including polka-dots, stripes and swirls appropriate to the theme.
The Amica 'Omaggio a Cocteau' editorial appeared in the March 2013 issue of the magazine.
