Devon Windsor fronts Elle UK's 'Space to Grow' feature, an editorial that spotlights floral fabrics and feminine silhouettes. Reviving a retro style aesthetic, the editorial is lensed by photographer Aitken Jolly and features wardrobe picks by Grace Cobb.
Cobb dresses her muse in vibrant maxi dresses, oversized tunics and clashing pant and top combinations that each display a different floral fabric. The model also pulls off nostalgic hair and makeup looks by Nao Kawakami and Shinobu who opt for teased locks and makeup that references the glamorous 60s and 70s.
Lensed inside of a nostalgic home, Space to Grow follows the life of a fictional housewife (Devon Windsor) who, despite her fashionable wardrobe, seems distant and contemplative in her day to day activities. Though ultra glamorous, this image series is also candid and makes a commentary about women during the 60s and 70s.
