The photo series titled Bois Flotte by Peter Coulson, a photographer based in Kilsyth South, Australia, which means 'drift wood' in French, is a stunning grayscale photoshoot by the ocean. Dramatic and cinematic, the breathtaking setting, which is all sky, sand and sea, accentuates the gorgeous gowns being showcased. All designed by Vergara, the patterns are like mirrors of the cloudy skies above.
Starring Natascha Verkaik, Milica Vujic and Sarah Deng, Bois Flotte by Peter Coulson turns them into more than just models. As Fashionising beautifully notes, "Submerged in sand or sitting solitary amoungst it, [they are] more like beautiful beach-combed objects, just waiting to be discovered and tucked into the pocket of a passer by."
