Description

This striking portrait captured by photographer Michael Bailey-Gates features a subject centered in the frame against a neutral grey background. The individual wears a sleeveless metallic silver dress detailed with rhinestone embellishments along the neckline and strap accents. Their blonde hair is styled in voluminous, flipped-out retro layers that frame the face. Dramatic eye makeup includes heavy false eyelashes and sharply defined brows, complemented by dark lipstick. The black-and-white or desaturated tonal quality emphasizes the textures of the garment and the distinctive hairstyling.
