Exuberantly Embellished Editorials

The Nylon Magazine 'Brave New World' Spread is Edgily Encrusted

Playing up the opulence of embellishments, the Nylon Magazine 'Brave New World' editorial shows casually edgy, encrusted looks.

The mood of fall runways was decidedly excessive. It can be difficult to play with such boldly lavish embellishments without feeling overdone. Models Allaire and Ella give a lesson on casually sporting the season's bling. This fashion story's poetic take on the prominent encrusted theme is exemplary in that it makes excessive embellishments surprisingly wearable.

Styled by Martha Violante, the decorate styles are captured by photographer Andrew Stinson. The spread boasts ornamental pieces by Diane Von Frustenberg, Prada, Louis Vuitton, Oscar de la Renta, Diesel and Burberry Prorsum. Brave New World is a demonstrative visual of blinged garment potential.
