The combination of 1930’s era fashion and retro army-wear inspires Dazed & Confused Japan in the December 2009 issue. The entire edition is dedicated to a look at womenswear, which is fitting with the 1930s and ‘40s fashions that have been heavily influencing designers for a few seasons.
Model Anya Kasakova models throw-back looks with a modern twist for Dazed & Confused Japan. The editorial was photographed by Yasunari Kikuma and styled by Lotta Volkova for the fashion feature and cover shoot.
