The Shop Australia 'Playing the Field' editorial revolves around an adorable photoshoot in which model Isabelle S joins the boys for a game of rugby. Granted, she is not dressed the part at all. Instead, the editorial encourages women to "tackle party-dressing decisions with sleek, sporty cuts," as written in the magazine. In a way, the blonde beauty can be taken for the fun-loving girlfriend of one of the players.
Lensed by photographer Steven Chee, the Shop Australia 'Playing the Field' editorial was styled by Charlotte Stokes. Concentrating on curve-hugging numbers, the looks are very contemporary with "graphic lines, bold color-blocking and mesh details," notes Fashion Gone Rogue. The athletic touches does not interfere with the wardrobes sexiness, though.
