United Kingdom-based graffiti artist Kid Acne takes a typical fashion editorial, in this case the ELLE Belgium 'Art Power' editorial, and turns it on its head with some cute illustrated co-stars. Posing alongside model Robin Hölzken in all of their sketchy glory, these pop art characters add a playful and imaginative vibe to the photoshoot.
The ELLE Belgium Art Power was shot by Brussels-based photographer Hicham Riad. The brunette beauty was styled by Anne Rabeux, who clad her in a feminine and colorful wardrobe that makes sure she isn't overshadowed by her creative co-stars. The casually chic pieces offers the perfect inspiration for the summer season. Appearing in the June 2012 issue of the magazine, the looks were perfected by beauty artist Vasko Todorof who focused on easy and fresh hair and makeup.
