# Forlorn Bedroom Shoots The Private Elegance Vogue Italia Editorial is Heartbreaking By Leslie Chen | Published 2013-08-29 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/private-elegance-vogue-italia References: [fashioncopious.typepad](http://fashioncopious.typepad.com/fashioncopious/2013/08/private-elegance-ondria-hardin-by-paolo-roversi-for-vogue-italia-september-2013-editorial.html) & [vogue.it](http://www.vogue.it/en) The Private Elegance [Vogue](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/no-rules-club) Italia editorial is exactly what the title suggests: a stylish affair kept in closed quarters. Photographed by Paolo Roversil, the photo shoot is set in a dimly lit bedroom with nothing other than a bed and seat covered in sheets of plastic. Model Ondria Hardin looks like a forlorn lover trying to forget her beau while dressed up in her finest [furs and dresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-journey). Despite the [lovely ensembles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025) styled by Jacob K, it's difficult to not focus your attention on the longing distant stare etched across Hardin's face throughout the images. What I love most about the shoot is Hardin's beautiful gray blue hair which offers a visualization of the heartbreaking romance she may have just experienced.
