The photo shoot starring Meluxine by Shauna Phoon blends the best of two worlds: Old Hollywood of the 1920s and greaser gangs of the 1950s. There is a touch of grittiness thrown into the otherwise glamorous shots. The model’s platinum pixie cut and tough-chick ensembles fit right into the latter era, while the full makeup and sensual poses speak to the former.
Meluxine by Shauna Phoon was put into the fashionable hands of stylist Michael Villani. Half of the pieces are from Villani’s own couture line, while the other half was rummaged from vintage shops and then refashioned into modern pieces. Beauty artist Sarah Baxter completed the fun looks with soft finger waves and red lips.
