Super-Sized Black Bows

Ali Michael for Lula Spring 2010 Issue is Lovely

Ali Michael for Lula Spring 2010 issue catches a case of the spots and over-the-top headgear for the photographic story ‘Why Don’t They Let Us Fall in Love?’ Photographer Catherine Servel captures Ali Michael as she portrays girlish innocence for the camera.

Styled by Sam Bryant, the charming innocence of girlhood is brought out in this shoot with his selection of veils, big bows and oversized hats. The whole photo spread is reminiscent of playing dress up and is extremely sweet, which begs an answer to their question, ‘Why Don’t They Let Us Fall in Love?'
