Michael Bailey-gates, Photographer, New York

Description

Three models with dramatic, voluminous beehive hairstyles and dark fringe details walk outdoors in a black and white editorial photograph. They are styled in black fringed lingerie tops, dark briefs, garter belts, and fishnet stockings with patterned boots. The central figure holds a cigarette and looks directly forward with a composed expression while the others walk alongside her. Large graphic text elements in rainbow and black font overlay parts of the frame, including magazine title typography on the left margin. The natural outdoor setting appears to be an asphalt street or paved path with soft daylight illuminating the scene.
