There is no need to wonder why the photo series titled 'The Edge' by Richard Machado, a photographer based in New York, has been named so. Utterly edgy and fantastically futuristic, it is the overriding theme of the photoshoot. From geometric accessories to vibrant colors and simplistic backdrops, the images are both sophisticated and sci-fi. The addition of digital manipulations add to the vibe of the series, making model Atong Arjok look like a life-sized hologram.
Styled by Aline Pimentel for issue 28 of FASHIONTREND Magazine, The Edge by Richard Machado features the fashion designs of such brands as Herve Leger, Bill Blass, Louis Vuitton and Missoni. The fierce looks were perfected by makeup artist Deborah Altizio and hairstylist Jason Murillo.
