The Vogue Russia July 2013 editorial is at once sweet and stoic. This is due in large part to the fashion, which balances between feminine and masculine qualities. The masculinity owes itself to the reliance on a strict black and white palette while the femininity is present in the little details, whether that involves a floral crown headdress, sheer fabric or the ruffled hem of a skirt.
Starring model Ji Hye Park, the Vogue Russia July 2013 editorial was shot by photographer Emma Tempest. The South Korean beauty was outfitted by stylist Camilla Pole, who pulled the edgy romantic pieces from such labels as Blue Linen, Gucci, Valentino and Marni. The subtly ethereal looks were perfected by hair stylist Halley Brisker and makeup artist Lotten Holmqvist.
