Although the description might seem contradictory to some, the Soo Joo Park W Korea editorial is at once colorful and dark. Although the swimwear and makeup embraces some vibrant hues, there is an edge to each image that not only harkens to haute couture photoshoots, but Tim Burton-like films as well.
Shot by photographer Yeonghun Kim, the Soo Joo Park W Korea editorial brings a bit of a dark attitude as well with her platinum blonde hair and mysterious persona. Her specific look was put together by stylist Shun Kim, who not only focused on bright colors, but bold patterns as well. Captured on location by the beach, her looks are perfected with wet and tousled tresses and orange lipstick. It will encourage women to be a little more daring this summer.
