Description

Musician Kelela is captured in a high-contrast black-and-white fashion portrait for Highsnobiety's project Kelela's New Avatar, photographed by Emilio Tamez with styling by Stephanie Perez. She sits perched on a dark geometric block in an outdoor architectural space framed by light-toned paneled walls and a metal railing. She wears an unbuttoned denim trucker jacket draped over her head, exposing her midriff, paired with relaxed-fit, wide-leg denim trousers featuring oversized cuffed hems over pointed black footwear. The low-angle vertical composition accentuates the sculptural silhouette of the denim garments under diffused natural daylight.
