Description
Singer and entertainer Kelela poses in an editorial portrait for Highsnobiety's project 'Kelela's New Avatar', photographed by Emilio Tamez with styling by Stephanie Perez and makeup by Raisa Flowers. Reclining against light grey concrete steps draped in dark fabric, she is captured from an overhead perspective. She wears a white scoop-neck top with contrasting black shoulder straps, deep brown relaxed-fit trousers, and a black skull cap or headwrap. Her hands feature black protective finger wraps accented by a wide, sculptural silver metallic cuff on her wrist. The makeup features lightened eyebrows and neutral tones under soft, diffused lighting.
