Entirely Ashen Editorials

The L'Officiel Mexico Christopher Ferguson Photoshoot is Colorless

The latest L'Officiel Mexico editorial produced by photographer Christopher Ferguson does away with color entirely. In outfits put together by stylist Dianna Lunt, model Dorothea Barth Jorgensen sported a wide selection of pale pieces that speak to the beauty of simplicity this season.

In each one of Ferguson's snapshots, Jorgensen wore pale fabrics in the forms of an off the shoulder gown, a billowing turtleneck dress and a matching two piece suit that hung loosely.

With frills, fur and a bit of lace, Lunt proved that there is much variety in the ivory category. At the same time, make-up artist Justine Purdue made the case for pale cosmetic pairings with light eye, cheek and lip shades.
