Bold All Black-Editorials

David Sims Captures Karlie Kloss for Vogue Paris March 2014

This Vogue Paris March 2014 fashion shoot captures dark and dramatic outfit options.

Fashion photographer David Sims snaps up this mod but moody shoot in all black and white. Supermodel Karlie Kloss shows what she is made of as she poses in different and diverse ways for each image. She is always expressive and even a little playful. Kloss’s hair alternates between being long and windblown to being covered and replaced by a short black wig.

All of the fashion in this Vogue Paris March 2014 style story is in chic and steady black. Other than the persistent hue of the garments, the other continuing theme of the fashion is that it is all vaguely masculine. Structured jackets, well tailored trousers and even the occasional bowler hat perfectly come together to make a style statement that is undeniably chic.
