In 'Hanging with Icons' photographer Anna Palma captures the model superimposed with projected images of historical figures. The exclusive editorial for Fashion Gone Rogue features model Matilda Price with the likes of John F. Kennedy, Elvis, Marilyn Monroe and David Bowie. Palma's most recent work coincides with the styling of Christine Baker. Meanwhile, Dane Holweger was the art director and prop stylist. Beauty artist Susan Haddon handled hair and makeup.
The blonde model is styled glamorously and evokes an eerily nostalgic emotion in Hanging with Icons. Not only does Price pose with the icons, her styling and positioning compliments or imitates the projection in some way. Whether she is smoking, waving or laying in bed, the series is seamless.
