Joan channels her inner tomboy while dressed in high-waisted trouser and bolero pairings and shows a softer side with voluminous gowns that would rival those of a Spanish Flamenco dancer.
Hair stylist Luigi Murenu and makeup artist Kabuki complete the model's glamorous transformation into an elegant style icon with a flair for drama and excess. The Joan Smalls Vogue Germany January 2014 cover story highlights pieces from Falke, Dries Van Noten and Emilio Pucci among a slew of others.
