The ensembles featured throughout the Marie Claire South Africa 'Highlander' editorial may be undeniably modern and European, but there is an exotic element introduced not only by way of the model, but also the styling. For instance, Aluad Deng Anei's African background is paid tribute to through the use of face paint and tribal-esque jewelry. Nevertheless, the editorial was shot on the Scottish high road in Dullstroom.
The Marie Claire South Africa 'Highlander' editorial was lensed by photographer Ross Garrett. Set to appear in the July 2013 issue of the magazine, the short-haired beauty was styled by fashion director Sharon Becker in a range of tartans and plaids. Strikingly statuesque, she stands like a pillar in the midst of never-ending flat plains, making the scenes even more breathtaking.
