The REVS Magazine 'Aspen' Editorial is Dark and Emotional

— February 6, 2013 — Fashion
The REVS Magazine 'Aspen' editorial is full of dark and dramatic mystery despite its minimalist setting. Unlike photoshoots full of vibrant colors, sunny backdrops and happy-go-lucky models, grayscale editorials rely on a deeper soul to reel people in. As evident in this photoshoot, the raw emotion present throughout each image gives them that necessary element that will engage viewers in a meaningful manner.

Shot and styled by photographer Igor Oussenko, the REVS Magazine 'Aspen' editorial depicts a woman who looks to be struggling with something. The black ensembles, which feature pieces from such labels as Damir Doma and Jeremy Laing, help to channel this struggle into a visual representation.

The androgynous looks in the REVS Magazine 'Aspen' editorial were perfected by makeup artist Kate Kudrina and hairstylist Yaroslav Olkov.
