The Elle US Ralph Lauren editorial will highlight the latest looks from the label in the January 2015 issue of the publication. Model Bridget Malcolm showcased the current Polo for Women collection, displaying it in the most nonchalant of manners despite the upscale nature of the brand.
Photographer David Bellemere made Malcolm look as relaxed as possible as he captured her lying on couches and comfortable chairs. With sunlight beaming through the shots, Malcolm appeared as if she was lounging at home.
Stylist Samira Nasr contributed to this relaxed approach to fashion. She dressed Malcolm in thick socks, knit sweaters and lace undergarments, making many of the pieces appear well-suited to chic daytime pajama ensembles.
