Distinctive looking models Ben Waters and Flo Dron have posed in this melancholy editorial for the Open Lab Magazine Spring/Summer 2013 collection.
The images show Ben and Flo in a number of stark, modern and sleek shots, with exaggerated hair and make-up. Both models have tousled jet black hair, which could be described as extreme bed head. Indeed their hairdos are so messed up they rival Cure frontman Robert Smith's bird nest.
Impressive hair aside, the clothes in this Spring/Summer 2013 collection are all about stark, loose-fitting tailored suits, paired with crisp colors. From turquoise suit jackets to all-white two-piece suits to corseted jackets, this collection is far from traditional gothic styling. This lookbook provides a sophisticated minimalist look for any grown-up Edward Scissorhands admirers.
