Severely Moonlit Captures

'The Creation of Contrast' Vogue Japan Editorial Boasts Indigo Overlays

With its indigo overlay, 'The Creation of Contrast' Vogue Japan Editorial give off an eerie mood.

With its moody motif, this editorial pays tribute to moonlit evenings. Starring model Kelly Mittendorf, the shoot is decidedly dark as she embodies a statuesque serious protagonist. The unconventional palette pairings are fantastically contrasted, doing justice to its title. Styled by Rena Semba October 2012, the looks are prim and perfectly tailored with a focal point on the boldness of the shades used.

Photography by the masterly captured by Toshio Onda makes this piece shine in its evening glory. The stark mood combined with fierce fashion make for a stunning portrayal of mode. This piece certainly has me lusting over stunning key pieces by Fendi.
