The Numero May 2012 editorial has a funky, pop twist which manifests itself in the form of sharp outlines and geometric illustrations. A predominantly black and white photoshoot, especially when it comes to the outfits themselves, the illustrations also add a hint of bright neon color. As for the outlines, it is almost as if the lasso tool was used by a Photoshop amateur.
Shot by New York-based photographer Greg Kadel, the Numero May 2012 editorial's illustrations were done by Mel Kadel. It stars model Abbey Lee Kershaw. The Australian beauty was styled by fashion editor Samuel François, who pulled pieces from the racks of such labels as Salvatore Ferragamo, Stella McCartney, Giorgio Armani and Isabel Marant. The looks were finished with windswept hair by Franco Gobbi.
