the dark side


Photographed by Mario Sorrenti, this photograph of Australian model Gemma Ward is a bit frightening but yet strangely chic in the Vogue Italia July 2006 editorial issue. The theme was called masquerades. An all black top with a dark metallic silver bow neck piece, painted black neck and chin, black lips with black lines on the cheeks, thick black wire mask, & a black wired headpiece. This is what high fashion is about. Going to the extreme and creating a look that can be shocking and provocative. I've seen a lot of Sorrenti's work and I just love how he can grab your attention with any of his photograph work whether it's simple sweet or to a new level.
