Model Kirsten Owen is touted as an alchemist in the Numero Tokyo April 2014 editorial. A magician when it comes to styling, albeit with the help of stylist Akari Endo-Gaut, she mixes an array of fabrics and textures to achieve looks that are eclectic in all the right ways. From sheer knee-high stockings and metallic pencil skirts to fish net-like tops and curve-hugging cutout dresses, the looks are made for those who like to experiment with their wardrobes.
The Numero Tokyo April 2014 editorial was shot by photographer Catherine Servel. In it, the blonde beauty showcases the spring collections of Gucci, Proenza Schouler and Anthony Vaccarello. Hairstylist Ward and makeup artist Tyron Machhausen finish the looks.
