The Vogue Japan September 2014 The Development of Form editorial focuses specifically upon different textiles. Photography duo Luigi and Iango captured a mesmerizing assortment of fabrics and consistencies, all of which were modeled by giants like Naomi Campbell.
Stylist Giovanna Battaglia made use of varying cuts and labels for this eclectic production. No matter the pieces displayed however, Battaglia made sure to include highly texturized items via feathers, excessive layers, swirls of wool, and large cuts of leather.
Hair expert Luigi Murenu took focus away from tresses by keeping the coifs simple. This was seen in slicked back looks, side braids and crop dos. In this way, more attention was accorded towards the outfits of Battaglia.
