The Age of Innocence online editorial, which was shot exclusively for Fashion Gone Rogue, was inspired by Sofia Coppola's 'The Virgin Suicides.' Whimsically dark and dreamily melancholy, it is hard to tell whether this damsel really is in distress or is simply succumbing to her pensive mood for the moment rather than for a lifetime, which could very well end prematurely.
Lensed by Sydney-based photographer Zanita Morgan, model Jordan Murray embraces a sad soul with stoic expressions and listless poses. Whether swinging in the park or reading on concrete steps, nothing appears to cheer her up. Not even the soft feminine wardrobe that is comprised of labels such as Zimmermann, Fleur Wood and Friend of Mine.
