Emma sports high fashion classics including designer looks from Calvin Klein, Jil Sander, Max Mara and Dolce & Gabbana. Emma’s understated hair and makeup by Marija Kopilas are the perfect beauty accents for these black and white captures. This editorial is all about understated glamor with a focus on sophisticated basic pieces that serve as staples in a woman’s wardrobe.
