Unlike the traditional Japanese geisha, the Neo Geshia UK Vogue editorial contains a dash of gothic flavor to modernize the look. Photographed for the June 2011 issue of the magazine by Paolo Roversi, the images take a big leap from the traditional kimono-wearing geisha.
Full of pale skin and dark red lips, the models looks are inspired by the vampire fad that has taken the world by storm in recent years. While the Neo Geisha UK Vogue editorial is modernized, the traditional geisha is still illustrated with pretty floral head pieces and kimono-inspired clothing.
Inspired by the traditional but taking on a modern aesthetic, the Neo Geisha UK Vogue shoot is appealing to fashion fiends that span across many generations.
