Using both printed outfits and an incredible afro may seem like too much is going on in one editorial, however the Madame Air France September issue combined the two flawlessly.
Taking inspiration from a retro vibe, the editorial entitle 'Studio' demonstrated that there can be multiple focuses in one shoot, and that if the styling is done correctly, it will not look cluttered. The model is dressed in multiple different prints and colors, with the outfits varying in style from dresses to pantsuits. The hair and makeup is an integral part to the feeling of the shoot. The model has a fantastic afro and she has a bright orange lid and while the rest of her makeup is basic. This Madame Air France September issue showed that two competing looks can come together in order to produce a stunning editorial.
