The colorful 80s fashion featured throughout the latest issue of Blank Magazine is at once subtle and bold. Although undeniably vibrant, the retro aspect boasts a modern twist that almost any woman can get behind. Interestingly, the looks were inspired by Debbie Harry, the American lead singer of the new wave and punk rock band Blondie. Hence, the title of the editorial.
Put together by stylist Andrea Messier Cumo, the colorful 80s fashion is modeled by Anna Piirainen. The appropriately platinum blonde beauty was shot by photographer Matallana, who captured her on location in equally vibrant and funky settings. Full of color-blocking, mix and match prints and trench coats, the wardrobe is made for the city chic girl who is looking for a fun vintage edge.
