Harper's Bazaar Colombia Botanical Diaspora 2026

Description

This portrait is part of the Botanical Diaspora project for Harper's Bazaar Colombia, photographed by Roberto Pacurucu with fashion styling by Carlos Mangubat. The image features model Maryel Sousa leaning forward against a dark, dramatic background. She wears a strapless dress showcasing a soft gradient of pink and white tones with delicate pleated textures. Real orchids are tucked behind her ears, contrasting starkly with her pale complexion and auburn hair. The lighting creates gentle highlights across her collarbones and shoulders while casting the background into deep shadow.
