Rag Report: Wait, she's only 16?!?

Rag Report dives under the covers of fashion publications to rant or rave about all the glossy goodness. 

 
Frida Gustavsson in Numéro

Model Frida Gustavsson heats up this month’s issue of Numéro. Dressed up in all things flirty and sexy, 16-year-old Gustavsson is hardly recognizable. The close up of her is particularly beautiful. Her makeup is sensual and simple, but dramatic too - a combination that is difficult to pull off. Her dark red lips against the simplicity of her eye shadow and bleached eyebrows are striking. The audience is immediately drawn to Gustavsson’s sultry innocence.

Ruffled skirts are great to have in your closet because they can be sweet and sexy. We love how stylist Capucine Safyurtlu paired the ruffled skirt with lace and ridiculously amazing Fendi heels. Even though the heels stand out, they don’t detract attention from the setting of the photo. Gustavsson’s pose is perfect, especially when the lighting hits her frame. The overall look is breathtaking!

This shot is simple but still makes a statement. The combination of lace and leather is divine. As Rachel Zoe would say, “I DIE!” The only problem is that half of Gustavsson’s face is hidden. We wish we could have seen her whole face with open eyes. Regardless, we love the editorial. Gustavsson really steps it up for the shoot and we commend her for it.
