Dark Retro-Themed Editorials

The Fashion Gone Rogue 'Nostalgia' Photoshoot Stars Li Wei

The Fashion Gone Rogue 'Nostalgia' online editorial is darkly opulent. Taking on a glamorous retro theme, model Li Wei roams around a big empty estate dressed to the nines as though waiting for someone to whisk her away to a glitzy party. Instead, as the hours whittle away, so does her hopeful expression.

Shot by Alexandre Valerio, an international photographer based in New York City, the Fashion Gone Rogue 'Nostalgia' online editorial was styled by the fashionable duo Shanna Nicole and Elissa Aimee. They pulled elegant dresses and gowns from the likes of Chanel, Bottega Veneta and Alberta Ferretti. Complemented with a range of chunky jewelry, the looks were perfected by hair stylist Takeo Suzuki, who created a tousled coif, and makeup artist Misha Shahzada, who played with smokey eyes.
