Craig Stuart Eisenberg photographed the beautiful Flora Watling in an exclusive editorial for C-Heads.

Eisenburg chose to shoot at Two Management specifically because of its imposing aesthetic. He explains, "Me and Flora share an affinity for modern architecture. Seeing her personal style, it felt natural to juxtapose her [soft femininity and curves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/femininity-in-bloom) against the hard lines and angles of Eric Owen Moss’ development here in LA."

To further the contrast, Flora wore [lacy, negligee-inspired dresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zhilyova) paired with worn-in [combat boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-nicholson-fw25). Though the overall look is delicate and feminine, the boots offer a grittier undertone. Overall, the editorial suggests that we don't judge a book by its cover; style cannot be reduced to a singular aesthetic, and Watling's femininity possesses a power and strength.
