The Harper'a Bazaar Brazil January 2015 editorial featuring model Barbara Fialho showcases a variety of bathing suit looks for readers of the chic publication. Photographer Fabio Bartelt captured the striking series which includes markedly rebellious looks, seen in shimmering fabrics and a cropped leather jacket.
Blue-hued lighting was used to display ivory cut-out one-piece suits, bandaged black pieces and metallic apparel. When paired with Fialho's wet, distressed tresses, the production appeared all the more unruly and against the grain, proving that there are more ways than one to sport high end swimwear.
Considering the striking nature of this pool-appropriate series, accessories were kept in check. Instead, Fialho focused on the ensembles only, proving that little is needed to match these items.
