Grainy and [monochromatic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-tag-collection), the Tush 'A Lighter Shape of White' editorial has a retro film quality that adds character to each still. Since the studio shoot is incredibly simple, this added texture really makes it stand out.

The Tush A Lighter Shape of White editorial was shot by Armin Morbach, a photographer and publisher of the German magazine. Set to appear in the publication's newly revamped spring 2012 issue, the photo shoot stars model Suzie Bird. The French model was styled by Ingo Nahrwold, who chose an [all-white wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/white-is-good-shop) from the likes of [Chanel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chanel-spring-summer-2026), Jil Sander, Mugler and Céline. Makeup artist Nina Park and hairstylist Stelli finished off the minimalist outfits with a natural beauty look.
