Singer Solange Knowles is the current face of ElevenParis' Spring/Summer 2015 collection. The line is deliberately inspired by South Africa's Johannesburg, borrowing from the city's culture and style in a creative, colorful fashion.
Photographer Kim Jakobsen To took these earnest images of Knowles. Each one displays different pieces present in the current ElevenParis line with sheer jerseys, black athletic undergarments and print shorts.
Furthering the striking nature of these ElevenParis pictures is Knowles' bold orange-hued eyeshadow. The color makes the set pop, especially when paired with darker shades present in upscale t-shirts and basketball tops. Matched with the ensembles is Knowles' account of her future plans, which include finishing her album after taking some time off to enjoy her family and life.
