German model Toni Garrn dons a collection of eye-catching beach outfits for the 'Rainbow Room' editorial in Vogue Korea.
The rainbow room is not, as one might initially think, a room filled with Skittles; instead, it functions as a kind of summer purgatory. Decorated with pastel furniture and inflatable zoo animals, it's no replacement for the the great outdoors, but it is a stunning backdrop for Garn's sensational summer outfits.
Fashion editor Ye Young Kim dressed Garn in a mixture of vintage and contemporary swimwear pieces, ranging from Mara Hoffman to American apparel, along with an impressive array of hats by designers such as Ellen Christine. Each look is eclectic, imaginative and, in reference to the editorial's title, bursting with color. Looking more runway ready than beach, Garn was photographed by Hyea Won Kang for Vogue Korea's July 2015 issue.
