Fun and free-spirited, the Free People April 2012 lookbook appears to be inspired by Native American attire and accessories. It features all the trimmings, from headdresses to face paint. The collection is also influenced by the music festival scene. It so happens that the biggest music festival, Coachella, is taking place later this month in April 2012.
Lensed by New York-based photographer Thomas Northcut, the Free People April 2012 lookbook stars models Jacquelyn Jablonski, Hailey Clauson, Luisa Bianchin and Kate Harrison. The girl gang is seen roaming around a desert landscape in cutoff denim shorts, midriff-baring shirts and flowing frocks. Rife with bright colors, patterns and crocheted textures, the fashion has a boho-chic edge that makes each outfit perfect for Coachella.
