Entitled 'Clean Living,' this Michael Thompson W March editorial is the epitome of simple and clean beauty.
Shot in black and white by photographer Michael Thompson with styling done by Marie Amélie Sauvé, the photo shoot features models Maria Bradley, Marte Mei Van Haaster, Kremi Otashliyska and Ondria Hardin as they pose in a barren field against the backdrop of trees and fences. The overall feel of the spread is very minimalist; the models wear little black (or white) dresses and the occassional blazer.
Sometimes dressing up doesn't have to mean going all out. Check out the Michael Thompson W March shoot to see how dressing down can look more sophisticated than even the most glamorous gown.
