The Flatt Magazine Spring/Summer 2012 Kolfinna Kristófersdóttir photoshoot displays the best of dark, punk-chic fashion. Kristófersdóttir is found clad throughout in dark, spiky pieces, and her serious downward set gaze helped to further the editorial's mysterious appeal.
Photographer Nico Iliev oversaw the execution of this haunting Flatt Magazine production. His work with Harper's Bazaar Spain, Amanda Lepore and the Stradivarius advertisements have been detailed in every regard. And while he has mostly concentrated on vibrant and floral backdrops, his shift towards rebellious rocker motifs has been done with attention to style and at base, fine art.
Studded leather jackets and an assortment of cut-out, tasseled and see-through apparel make for the perfect 'I'm with the band' ensembles. Kristófersdóttir's light cosmetics also promotes an au natural take on the often glamorous look.
