The Northern Hemisphere might be thawing out, but the Harper’s Bazaar Turkey 'Pastel Ruyalar' (Pastel Dreams) editorial is completely chilled. An icy photo shoot, to say the least, it accents the pretty pastel outfits perfectly. If an Ice Queen were to step into a prep school as a student, this is exactly what her wardrobe would look like.
The Harper’s Bazaar Turkey 'Pastel Ruyalar' editorial was lensed by London-based fashion photographer Koray Birand, who also splits his time between Istanbul, Paris and Munich. Set to appear in the magazine's March 2012 issue, the blue-tinged photo shoot stars model Katrin Thormann. The German beauty was styled by fashion editor Mahizer Aytas. Aytas clad her in pretty picks from Marc Jacobs and more. Ali Yilanci and Cigdem Yartasi did the hair and makeup.
