The Vogue Taiwan 'Urban Story' editorial features some interesting fall fashion. Adhering to a strict palette of natural hues including browns, tans and beiges, the outfits have been almost eccentrically layered for looks that are eclectic and tame at the same time. With a menswear element thrown into the mix, the wardrobe has a lot going on.
Captured by Paris-based photographer Naomi Yang, the Vogue Taiwan 'Urban Story' editorial appeared in the August 2012 issue of the magazine. It stars model Marique Schimmel. The Dutch beauty was styled by Joanna Schlenzka, who clad her in such labels as Givenchy, Balenciaga, Dries van Noten and Roberto Cavalli. The neutral, sophisticated looks were perfected by hairstylist Ramona Eschbach and makeup artist Tracy Grey Mann.
