Clad in bold and bright attire, model Madison of Ford Models makes a case for 60s-inspired style in the Elle Canada ‘1960s Swinging Beats’ editorial.
Photographed for the magazine’s September 2011 issue, the Elle Canada 1960s Swinging Beats editorial takes fashion-lovers back to the Swinging Sixties when fashion was all about structure, makeup was all about the lashes and colors were anything but drab. The shoot features styles like a bold orange cape jacket, a kelly green toggle coat and a bright red sheath dress—items that could go back in time and fit right in but look undeniably chic for this fashion season.
The Elle Canada 1960s Swinging Beats editorial was photographed by Jean-Claude Lussier. Hair and makeup was done by Paco Puertas, styling by Azamit and art direction by Denis Desro.
