This Elle US March 2014 fashion story has a heroic concept behind it.
Photographer Arthur Elgort this super style shoot set on the streets of LA. Model Elsa Hosk posses with a number of famous comic book heroes from both DC and Marvel comic books. This may seem taboo, but I doubt the people at Elle really care what character is from which company.
The superheroes featured in this Elle US March 2014 style spread are Superman, Spiderman, Batman and Captian America. Hosk’s styling also hints at superhero-status with bold style choices and the occasional mask. Primary colored patterns, sequined corsets, stunning swimwear and shinning metallic outfits all make the model look as powerful and super-human and the masked men.
