Jazmin Kelly, Hair Stylist, New York

Description

This striking monochrome editorial image features a black woman with her dark hair styled into an elaborate high updo. She wears sheer dark opera gloves that extend past her elbows, with her arms crossed gracefully in front of her torso. A shaft of dramatic hard light cuts across the frame, highlighting her facial features, collarbones, and the texture of the gloves while leaving parts of her face in shadow. The composition is vertical and intimate, capturing a moody, high-contrast aesthetic reminiscent of classic magazine layouts. Visible in the upper right corner is the magazine title text L'OFFICIEL.
