Instead of being strictly stiff and sophisticated, the black and white looks showcased throughout the Harper's Bazaar Turkey June 2012 cover shoot are exotically chic and strikingly sensual. Modeled on the irresistable Ieva Laguna, the looks offer a refreshing change from the vibrant bohemian outfits overtaking the summer season this year. It extends the elegant ladylike ensembles that have been prevalent the last few months while adding a bit of sizzle for the upcoming heat.
The Harper's Bazaar Turkey June 2012 cover shoot was shot by international photographer Koray Birand. Outfitted by stylist Mahizer Aytas in designs from such labels as Gucci and Emporio Armani, the Latvian beauty is captured in a lush backdrop that complements the monochromatic looks almost as much as the metallic accents.
