There's never a shortage of Eastern-inspired editorials, but this Vogue Korea June 2013 editorial stands out with its elegant pairing of martial arts and fashion.
Shot by photographer Hyea-Won Kang, the series stars model Soo Joo as she poses in a series of stances like she's about to kick some serious butt. Using oversized fans and umbrellas as accessories, Soo Joo manages to make martial arts look almost seductive. The model still manages to rock a pair of heels throughout the shoot although she looks like she could take on a whole slew of fighters.
If you thought that martial arts was all sweat and no style, this Vogue Korea June 2013 series will make you realize that fashion can be part of just about anything.
