The style certainly didn't run dry in this Zink Winter 2013 collection. The concept of this editorial has model Alyssa Campanella pictured wandering in a dry desert land while wearing lush designer duds. The styling was intricate but simple, keeping to mainly white pieces with only one black dress at the end.
Many of the clothes featured in the Zink Winter 2013 pictorial, titled Desert Angle, had naturalistic details to them. In the first photograph, Campanella is wearing a long white Houghton gown while standing face-to-face with a tiger. In the next picture, the model dons a very tribal looking Hervé Léger top, that looks as though lots of weaving went into the creation of it. We then see one of the most interesting pieces in the shoot, a white Izmaylova dress, with cut outs at the sides and feathers on the skirt.
