The Numero 'Bowery Girl' editorial is at once dark and gothic as well as edgy and urban. Giving the grunge and goth look a romantic spin, the fashion featured throughout the photoshoot is made for young women who want to channel the glamor of the 1920s without sacrificing their own contemporary personas at the same time.
Shot by photographer Greg Kadel, the Numero 'Bowery Girl' editorial is set to appear in the July 2013 issue of the French publication. It stars model model Kremi Otashilyska. The Bulgarian beauty was outfitted in a layered wardrobe by stylist Bill Mullen, who surprisingly pulled pieces from the likes of such polished brands as Chanel and Prada. Her tousled tresses were created by Ward Stegerhoek with makeup by Mariel Barerra.
