The Diary of a Showgirl photo series is simultaneously dark and vibrant, a detail that makes me really appreciate each and every image. As though capturing the two sides of being a chorus line performer, the photoshoot is both elegant and edgy.

Shot by Jakarta-based photographer Julius Bramanto, the Diary of a Showgirl photo series is saturated in [electric colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/profiles-in-color) that is often associated with a [big production](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-life-of-a-showgirl). With a behind-the-scenes theme, it displays our showgirl getting ready for her big performance.

Stunningly styled by Reza Bustami, the Diary of a Showgirl photo series features [bold hair and makeup](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/il-pranzo-campaign) by Carry. Bramanto was assisted by Retno Prasasti (asty), Ken Arini, Shuri and Sigit. Unfortunately, the name of the model was left out.
