Description

This striking fashion image features a model captured in profile wearing a black top hat, a fitted black top accented with an oversized statement bow, and black gloves. Vivid painted patches of deep red pigment are applied across the subject's face and back, creating a striking abstract contrast against the dark garments. The composition is set against a textured, painterly white background that blends brushstrokes and subtle gradations. The lighting is direct and high-contrast, accentuating the sculptural lines of the apparel and the graphic nature of the framing. Photographed by Viviane Sassen in London.
