The most common fairy tale attribute has always been the damsel in distress; the [Vogue](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fashionbranded-caf-experiences) Germany Delle de Noir features Katlin Aas in a dark and sultry manner. From [monochromatic colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25) to saturated hues, the shading makes the colors pop in a kaleidoscope of shaded contrasts. The blacked out clothing and the whited out skin makes the destruction of human emotion an eccentric feature in each frame.

The Vogue Germany Delle de Noir embodies the elegant gothic highlights combined with modern elements. From smokey photography to headshot stills, the Delle de Noir lives up to its name. The German magazine works with mundane clothing to capture the essence of the [winter fashion collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir) in a prismatic way.
