Sometimes simpler is better, a motto that the Harper's Bazaar Poland April 2014 editorial adheres to. But far beyond the constraints of minimalism, it in essence adopts a wardrobe full of statement-making outfits that will turn heads and elicit admiring stares from both men and women. In spite of its predominantly monochromatic palette, the looks are full of textures and accessories that are far from bland.

She is clad in pieces from the likes of Burberry Prorsum, Stella McCartney and Bottega Veneta by fashion editor Sara Francia.
