Description

This striking editorial photograph by photographer Erika Long features a model wearing an extravagant, voluminous white strapless gown with a full textured skirt and a thin white belt. The model is also wearing long black opera gloves, contrasting sharply against the bright white dress. The subject is posed centrally against a dark, moody background with atmospheric blue and purple lighting tones. The lighting creates a dramatic rim effect along the edges of the voluminous skirt. The composition is vertical, emphasizing the grand scale of the gown.
