The W Korea June 2014 editorial combines a tribal theme with a punk one for a look that is vibrantly edgy and exotic. It stars model Codie Young, who also sports quite the coif with a severely cut set of bangs and bleached brows courtesy of hair stylist Noelia Corral and makeup artist Adalberto Pezzaoili. In terms of beauty alone, the looks are daring.
Shot on location in a desert along Italy’s coastline by photographer Philip Riches, the W Korea June 2014 editorial is titled 'The New Venus.' Clad in the spring-summer collections of Valentino, the blonde beauty was styled by fashion editor Woo Lee. Lee paired the colorful prints with tribal inspired jewelry and metal cuffs to really hammer home the theme.
