Smouldering Afro Editorials

The Sultry ‘Afrodisiaque’ Editorial was Created for Stylist France

Stunner Stef van der Laan stars in the ‘Afrodisiaque’ editorial for Stylist France. This sultry summer-inspired series features cropped tops, deep v-neck tops, lacy numbers and shimmering short-shorts. Stef sports a fantastic afro in these sexy shots (put together by stylist Paco Garrigues).

These shots are meant to seduce fashion lovers, as the name of the series implies. This editorial, shot by the talented Txema Yeste, is equal parts elegant and racy. Nearly all of these looks incorporate a dangling bead belt to help draw attention to Stef van der Laan’s exposed midriff. Many of these outfits also have plunging necklines, and tight tops to entice fashion lovers.

This chic afro fashion series is a welcome throw back to the 70’s. These looks are both provocative and eye-catching, and they’ll have fashion fans longing for warm summer weather.
