Rocking one of the it colors for the upcoming season, the Harpers Bazaar Australia March 2013 editorial is a fierce collection of color blocked fashion.
Captured by photographer Simon Upton with model Marleen Gaasbeek as the muse, the series is set against abandoned areas and rocky roadsides. This barren landscape is contrasted with the magnetic ensembles that Gaasbeek wears; every single piece in the editorial, from dresses to pant suits to body suits, has either a touch of blue in it or is covered in the color. The model wears her blonde tresses sleeked back to add to the clean-cut style of focusing on one color throughout the editorial.
If you've been wondering where to focus your style energies on for spring, look no further than the Harpers Bazaar Australia March 2013 shoot for some helpful hints.
