Actress Lily Collins has been slaying the red carpet with her chicly polished and subtly edgy ensembles as she promotes her latest blockbuster film, 'The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones'; yet she dons a completely different look for the Flaunt Issue 129 editorial. Channeling a punk attitude, it is hard to see her pretty femininity masked behind a big mohawk by Patricia Morales, dark eyeliner by Kayleen McAdams and dark outfits. So instead the team melds the two together almost seamlessly.
The Flaunt Issue 129 editorial was shot by photographer Frederic Auerbach. Captured outdoors, the looks may be obviously punk, but there is an elegance to them that stylist Leila Baboi was sure to bring to the table.
