Toni Smailagic captures model Lauren Karaman in this sultry and full-figured fashion editorial. The brunette beauty poses in a set of studio closeups and on city streets while showing off her curves. Whether donning casual attire or revealing lingerie, the model embraces her body and proves that beauty doesn't only come in a size zero. In addition to her suggestive wardrobe, Lauren also sports gold earrings that are vintage in their look.
Hair and makeup for this series is the work of Aziza Walker who uses products from MAC Cosmetics products on Lauren. The result is a fresh-faced beauty routine that is accented with bold brows and a striking, red lip.
This full-figured fashion editorial by photographer Toni Smailagic is nothing short of striking and breaks stereotypes with its celebration of realistic beauty.
