Come to me, a sultry morning editorial photographed by Tawan Conchonnet, features newcomer Lily B from Basic Models with sensual styling from Geraldine Lim and smoky eye make up by Hana Leong.
This seemingly casual editorial oozes with dark undertones. The dark body-hugging outfits contrasts against the stark background bringing closer attention to the carefully selected outfits on the model.
Some of the closer shots frames Lily’s perfectly piercing gaze that lends an intensity to the series of photos. It’s a gaze that pulls the viewers in with a come-hither notion of mystery. And just like a proper film noir, the viewer is pulled away by that lasting shot of Lily walking away like a phantom.
