Imke Panhuijzen captures 'Stitching Blues,' a series that highlights a wardrobe of raw denim clothing. Model Sara stars in the editorial that features wardrobe styling by Elise Verhoeven.
Verhoeven dresses her muse in a range of distressed denim pieces, varying from mini dresses and tattered jackets to trench coats and jean trousers that are more structured in their overall feel. Hair and makeup for 'Stitiching Blues' is courtesy of Charlotte Mailhe who opts for natural up-dos and clean cosmetic applications.
