Iconic photographer Patrick Marchelier has once more created a stunning editorial for the Vogue Italia April 2016 edition. Color can be the spice of life, however, there is something majestic about classic, sophisticated black and white imagery. For the Vogue Italia April 2016 issue three models serve up a slice of visual heaven. Imaan Hammam, Liya Kebede and Gigi Hadid are all featured in the gorgeous shoot.
We especially enjoyed the stylized moody essence of the editorial. Each model displays a dark, somber yet beautiful pose that spotlights their individual glamour. The effortless and ease of their positions has a seductive, magnetic appeal. The Vogue Italia April 2016 “Individuallure” editorial by Marchelier is a come-hither masterpiece that is enchantingly captivating.
Besides, the models themselves, the fashions displayed are just as engaging. Liya, Imaan and Gigi all wear designs by Valentino. The couture proves that subtlety and simplicity can still be a very dramatic style presentation. Nevertheless, their ensembles were given extra flair thanks to bold statement jewelry.
Model: Liya Kebede
Couture: Spring/Summer 2016 Valentino
Accessory/Jewelry: Alessandro Gaggio for Valentino
Model: Imaan Hammam
Couture: Fall 2016 Valentino
Accessory/Jewelry: Alessandro Gaggio for Valentino
To complement their sophisticated and conservative attire the model’s hair were flawlessly matched. They wore different hairstyles that could be described as “simple.” Liya’s tresses were elegantly pulled back, while Imaan and Gigi wore high chignons with wispy strands of hair flowing lightly around the hairline as well as the chignon itself.
Beauty Notes: Three words… less is more. Never underestimate the power of natural beauty. Emphasis on your best features can be even more gorgeous than a bold lip, strong contour and faux lashes. You’re beautiful so let the world the see it!
