The American History X editorial has a certain old Hollywood charm that simply can't be faked. Filled with muted tones of color as well as black and white images, the photo shoot will pull you in with its subtle and seductive ambience.
Shot by photographer Tak Sugita, the spread features classic beauty Kel Markey as she poses on rooftops and living rooms filled with antiques. The model wears her hair in a side-swept style that makes it look like she has her own personal wind machine. The retro style of the editorial is finished off with decadent furs and chic one pieces.
While most photo shoots these days tend to veer towards a futuristic style, the American History X editorial takes a glimpse into a gorgeous past.
