In place of snowy backdrops for the holiday season, the Dazed & Confused 'Collision Course' editorial gets a little more creative without losing sight of the winter season. It uses piles of white-painted cars that have clearly not seen their best days. Yet they provide the perfect canvas for the all-black ensembles showcased throughout the photoshoot.
Appearing in the December 2013 issue of the magazine, the Dazed & Confused 'Collision Course' editorial was shot by photographer Mikael Jansson. Edgy and chic, the looks are very avant garde with tube-like tops, leather harem pants and a Kenny McCormick-like parka. The looks were styled by Alastair McKimm and perfected by hair stylist Duffy and makeup artist Mark Carrasquillo.
