American-Zimbabwean actress Danai Gurira, best known for her outstanding roles in Black Panther and The Walking Dead, is featured in an empowering, stylish and fierce women of color editorial for ROGUE Magazine.
The actress is captured by photographer Benjo Arwas, wearing sculpturally relevant fashion pieces — from industrial-inspired spiky ear accessories to voluminous and ruffled statement dresses. The style of shots differs as the actress appears in both high-resolution photographs, as well as on worn-out acid-style distorted film. Danai Gurira conducts herself with elegant poise and striking confidence in ROGUE Magazine's women of color editorial photoshoot. Unapologetic and artful, Danai Gurira also lands on the cover of the independent print issue's eighth edition.
