Photographer Brett Stanley works alongside creative director Miss Dom to capture "Drifting", a [conceptual fashion story](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles) for Glassbook Magazine.

The visually striking image series features mirror-image, underwater views of its model star, Sophia Stace. Sophia sports a feminine and demure wardrobe in this underwater shoot that highlights [sheer and lace-accented fashions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selkies-the-libertine-collection).

Styling for the image series is courtesy of creative director Miss Dom who works with makeup artist Claudine Stace to bring muse Sophia's haunting look to life. The result is a striking and visually vivid story that is dreamlike and surreal.

Sophia swims and holds dynamic poses underwater while dressed in [voluminous tops and body-hugging undergarments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frankies-bikinis-keepsakes-collection). The ensembles are paired with fitted swim cap accessories that add a practical and fashion-forward element to this editorial.
