Spring will soon descend upon us, and with every spring comes chic tribal-inspired fashion, such as those showcased in this editorial for the Glamour Italy February 2012 edition.
Photographed by David Roemer, this sassy spread featuring model Gwen Loos is aptly titled 'Tribal Chic,' demonstrating how tribal styles can actually look more polished and sophisticated than the typical boho or hippie-esque pieces that usually come to mind. Loos, styled by Valentina Di Pinto, looks ravishing in chic city outfits comprising printed tops and skirts, casual and sporty khaki jackets, chunky wedge sandals and updated tribal-luxe accessories like structured handbags and elegantly beaded jewelry.
Loos sports a voluminous, messy coif created by hair stylist Keith Carpenter; her makeup is by Hung Vanngor.
