The Elle Italia September 2014 Trend 4: Decor editorial adorns the figures and outfits of models Stef van der Laan and Anastasia Ivanova. Stylist Micaela Sessa focused on the most detailed embellishments with the help of photographer Mark Pillai who offset the outfits with a faded grey backdrop.
Present in Sessa's ensembles are chunky buttons, drooping gemstones, thick metallic bracelets and gilded bits of fabric. Texture is certainly the rule that dictates the tone and overall look of Trend 4: Decor. Given the malleability of the motif, viewers will surely draw inspiration from Sessa's work.
Cosmetics expert Silvia Dell' Orto was just as bold as Sessa. Matching the bold accessories and pairings were pops of bright red eye shadow and pale, nude lips.
