The Flare September 2012 editorial showcases a slew of retro pant suits inspired by the rock 'n' roll style of the 70s. Although these are outfits that would have once been worn by men, they are being modeled by Jenna Earle, who shows women that sexiness is not all about showing skin and curves.
Captured by photographer Andrew Soule with fashion direction and styling by Elizabeth Cabral, the Flare September 2012 editorial takes on the theme of street style snaps. The Canadian beauty showcases designs from the likes of Alice + Olivia, Prabal Gurung, Tommy Hilfiger, Paul Smith, Elizabeth and James, Missoni, Chanel, Jason Wu, Rochas and others. For glam rock edginess, she also sports a shaggy haircut.
