Sports and fashion usually don't co-exist, but this editorial for Stylist France June 2013 is all about combining athletic elements with high style.
Shot by photographer Johan Sandberg and featuring model Mackenzie Drazan, the photo shoot has all of the usual fashion spread staples like chic slicked back hair and bold make up like crimson red lipstick, but there is one thing that seems to stick out: a pair of boxing gloves. The accessory is actually just a pair of brown leather gloves, but the way they're scrunched up and worn with an aggressive pose by model Mackenzie makes them look like they belong in the ring rather than in front of the camera.
This Stylist France June 2013 editorial manages to combine athletics with fashion in an entirely cool collection of photos.
