Hold on to your heels ladies, the Harper's Bazaar Australia 'Rush Hour' editorial is taking the suggestion to "show a little leg" to the extreme.
The photoshoot, captured by lens-lover Benny Horne, featured model Bette Franke sporting badass ensembles to showcase her stretched-out sleek stems and sky-high heels. With slicked back hair and virtually no trace of expression, Franke traipsed around town in looks by Balenciaga, Louis Vuitton, Giorgio Armani and Donna Karen. The luxury designer looks are perfectly fit for the downtown street scene, despite the fact that one is quite possibly a wetsuit.
You may think thigh high boots with a short skirt are more 'Pretty Woman' than pretty practical, but the Harper's Bazaar Australia Rush Hour editorial makes it look like you too should get a very bare leg up on the fashion competition.
