The Nylon Mexico December 2013 editorial doesn't seem fazed by the fact that it is the holiday season. Instead of following the suit of other fashion publications, it centers around a very summer-filled cover shoot, which sets the tone for the rest of the magazine. Playfully punk with a colorful attitude and dreams of beach weather, the defining feature of this photoshoot has to be the model's rainbow-hued braided hair.
Starring Chloe Norgaard, the Nylon Mexico December 2013 editorial is quirkily titled 'Crayon Ponyfish.' The American beauty was lensed by photographer Andrew Kuykendall and styled by Hanna Koskinen, who clad her in youthful designs by such labels as For Love & Lemons, Saint Laurent and Levi’s.
