Soon Tong's 'Black Magic' editorial for Amica Singapore celebrates doom and gloom in the most fashionable of ways--with thick Cleopatra eye makeup, tall black boots and liquid black leggings.
Stylist Adlina Anis puts model Ola P through her Gothic paces for Soon Tong's 'Black Magic.' The spread for Amica Singapore sees Ola Pin a variety of outdoor settings, where her black outfits stand out in comparison to the otherwise neutral backdrop. Hot.
Implications - This spread would definitely appeal to the masses of Twilight and True Blood fans; it definitely has a very vampire edge to it. It also proves that black will never go out of style, emphasizing the model's figure and features with bold black outlines.
