The October 2012 Harper’s Bazaar Russia boasts an editorial that blends two beloved subcultures.
Seamlessly marrying the styles of 60s mod and the aesthetic of Bohemia, this fall editorial exudes a nouveau aesthetic. A showcase of fall style, the fashion story stars models Ksenia Nazarenko and Helga Gelfrikh. They sport makeup looks that are reminiscent of model Twiggy and that exemplify 60s glamour.
With the showcase of prints, this editorial takes fall fashion to ornate levels of chic visuals. The edgy approach to this fall editorial is refreshing in its pairing of seemingly opposite pieces like fedoras and tailored suits. Lensed by photographer Aleksey Kolpakov, the captures entice with a muted matte palette that is done to perfection.
