The Elegance Netherlands May 2012 editorial takes the 50s fashion fad and livens it up even more through a saturated photoshoot that plays on the model's expressions of giddiness and glamor. Shot indoors and out, Spanish photographer duo Andoni & Arantxa concentrate as much on the setting as they do on the styles showcased.
Starring model Sasha Melnychuk, the Elegance Netherlands May 2012 editorial is filled with blue skies, bluer seas and an array of vibrant, retro-inspired pieces that rival the majestic and colorful backdrops. The photoshoot was styled by Ellen Mirck. Mirck clad the Ukrainian beauty in demure designs from the likes of Jil Sander, Emporio Armani, Jil Sander and Sportmax. The looks were completed with hair by Loris Rocchi and makeup by Claudia Marchetti.
