The Dazed & Confused Rock The Paint editorials features individual portraits of models Esther Heesch, Kinga Bajor,
Agne Konciute, and Lisa Stein. The four girls are showcased separately within this series which is currently on display as a part of the magazine's March 2013 issue.
Working behind the lens for Rock The Paint was photographer Ben Toms. Toms accorded the production with a retro sepia coloring, making it appear as if the portraits were taken during decades past. Stylist Mattias Karlsson infused the production with a young and fresh feel however with his use of white blazers, transparent bustiers and belly tops, pieces that are suited to this spring season and most importantly, to readers of Dazed & Confused.
