The fashion featured throughout the Lurve Magazine Spring/Summer 2014 editorial does not complement the somber setting, at least not at first. Avant garde and modern, they are much more lively then the backdrop. Not to mention the melancholy expressions and grunge-inspired hair and makeup. Yet in a way, these external elements help to tone down the colorful numbers while enhancing the tamer ones.
The Lurve Magazine Spring/Summer 2014 editorial was shot on location by photographer Leon Mark. It stars model Georgia Taylor. The brunette beauty was style by fashion editor Rúben Moreira, who focused on dark edgy outfits juxtaposed with a ladylike air. Captured both in black and white as well as color, the eclectic ensembles were perfected with a shaggy coif by Roku Roppongi and dark eyes by Ciara O'Shea.
