Top model Chanel Iman takes to the streets in a new pattern-heavy editorial for the Marie Claire March 2012 issue. The Marie Claire March 2012 issue has several fashion features filled with flower power and tropical patterns that stormed the runways during the spring summer shows, so it’s clear the editorial world of fashion is on-board.
Victoria’s Secret Angel Chanel Iman was photographed by Thomas Nutzl for the editorial, with hair by Miki and makeup by Fulvia Farolfi. The chic shoot is set in the heart of the city, with bright, graffiti-decorated walls adding to the intensity of the bold patterns worn so elegantly by Iman. The shoot features mostly skirts and dresses, but one image shows Iman in a delightful pair of patterned pants that are an awesome adaption of the style.
