Dark and dramatic, the Dress to Kill Summer 2013 editorial revolves around quite the desperate housewife. Although that term might be overused now thanks to the American television show, it is utterly appropriate for this photoshoot. In a way, the images tap into a more dangerous meaning behind the term. More dangerous and more fashionable, that is.
Titled 'Belle de Jour,' the Dress to Kill Summer 2013 editorial stars Dajana Antic. The brunette beauty was shot by photographer Richard Bernardin and outfitted by stylist Randy Smith. Channeling the look of a quintessential 60s housewife, the ladylike ensembles are full of leopard print kaftans, two piece suits and cropped tops. The elegant looks were perfected by Hair and makeup artist Sabrina Rinaldi.
