It's hard not to appreciate the moody looks featured throughout the Violet Grey Emilia Clarke cover shoot. Known for her strong and powerful character in Game of Thrones, fans will be thrilled to see her continue this persona even in her natural, brown-haired look. Of course, the attire is much too modern for the show.
Shot by photographer Naj Jamai, the Violet Grey Emilia Clarke cover shoot was styled by Petra Flannery. Petra dressed the brunette beauty in such glamorous pieces as a sequin-embellished gown from J. Mendel and a Rodarte embellished blouse. The looks were perfected with dramatic smokey eyes by makeup artist Lottie and slicked back locks by hairstylist Mara Rosak. She talks about beauty in the accompanying article.
