This Harper’s Bazaar US February 2014 editorial takes one blue hue and runs down the beach with it. Photographer Paola Kudacki snaps this shoot with a heavily lighted glow about it. It looks as though it took place on a beach with the subject blocking out the heavy streaming sun. Model Catherine McNeil is luminous with her white skin and hair blowing in the wind. If you look closely you can see that her eyes are the same color as the clothing.
All the garments shot in this Harper’s Bazaar US February 2014 spread are the same deep sea blue. Some have white accents to them. Most of the outfits are very light and slightly sheer. You can easily day dream about a quite beach as you see the ends of the clothes flutter in what you can imagine is a warm breeze.
