Julius Bramanto's 'Market Maiden' editorial for Swankglossy is a head-turner for several reasons. The crowded setting of the Cipete Market in Jakarta, Indonesia is certainly one of them; the stunning model Maria Kutuleva is another.
What's perhaps most intriguing to me about Julius Bramanto's 'Market Maiden,' however, is the combination of impeccable styling by fashion editor Kesya Moedz and Bramanto's photography. A simple shopping trip to an outdoor market becomes a haute style excursion--a theme I noted in one of Bramanto's earlier works, an editorial called 'Lonely Traveller.' Gorgeous.
