Stylist Tom Van Dorpe really took the title to heart when creating the dramatic wardrobe for the V Magazine 'Pump Up The Volume' editorial. The photoshoot is chock full of voluminous outfits that forego billowing fabric for pieces that have a bit more structure. The stark photography really throws these sculptural silhouettes into sharp relief against the grey backdrop.
Captured entirely in black and white by photographer Kacper Kasprzyk, the V Magazine 'Pump Up The Volume' editorial stars model Sam Rollinson. The dark-haired beauty was clad in larger than life Céline belts, bulky Calvin Klein coats and an accent from Azzedine Alaïa here and there to round out the outfits. The looks were perfected with a short slicked-back coif and heavy cat-eye.
