Chic Circus-Inspired Fashion

This Modern Series Features Carnival Style Fashion

This intriguing modern series for ‘Schon!’ Magazine features some vibrant carnival style outfits and hairstyles. Most of the hairstyles seen in this editorial are pixie cuts, but they’re extremely brightly colored. Some of these cuts are Ronald McDonald red, while others blend shades of blue, pink and purple.

Many of the looks seen in this edgy editorial are covered in checkered patterns or prints. One of these chic clown style outfits is yellow and gray. Model Ali Lagarde wears a checkered black and white vest over top and some kind of collar that resembles a lion’s mane. She’s also sporting bright red hair, and black and white checkered gloves in this shot. The look seems similar to a jester's outfit in some ways.

This stylish circus-inspired editorial is fun to look at and encourages patterned apparel.
