The [Vogue](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/no-rules-club) Italia Ambiguity editorial offers a [bewitched, whimsical take on fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hocus-pocus-apparel-collection). Photographer Chantelle Dosser captured the magical likes of model Nika Cole who posed in over the top wigs and oversize apparel, all selected with great attention to detail on behalf of stylist Gaelle Bon.

Bon chose thick embellished dresses, drooping neck lines and translucent chiffon for Ambiguity. These pieces made Bon appear majestic as she towered before the camera, an excellent subject for Dosser who chose to shoot in front of a distressed red and brown brick wall.

Cosmetic expert Sandrine Cano contributed to the drama that is Ambiguity with two-toned eyebrows, dark eye shadow and dark red lips that made Bon's looks pop. These eccentric make-up styles were furthered by aggressive clouds of smoke.
