Beauty Beyond Boundaries
Finally breaking society’s standards of beauty since 2019!
I am proud to see the world finally broadening their perspective of beauty. We aren’t there yet! We still have a long way to go, but I can definitely see several brands and labels finally being more inclusive about their choice of models and influencers who represent their brands. And for that they deserve a waving flag. At last we can celebrate humanity and beauty in its purest form. I salute cellulite, scars, stretch marks, love handles, pimples and much more. As they add to our glorious journey and it is what makes us beautiful from the inside out. That is what beauty truly is unfiltered and unadulterated.
Swim wear label Chromat has been one brand that has gone all out in this space and I couldn’t be more proud of them by including models of various shapes sizes and colour. Victoria Secret on the other hand should consider moving in this direction as well. Because it’s about time to see and appreciate beauty for what it really is! Not limited by height, weight, size, frame, colour, ethnicity and more.
This shoot is directed towards the narrative and the argument first followed by style. I’ve put together 2 looks for the gorgeous Helen Sebastian who is bold, beautiful and confident in her own skin! These two looks transition from a day-to-night look! Hope you enjoy what I’ve put together.
The first look above includes a floral A-line dress paired with some shocking purple pumps and some minimal earrings to finish the look. Adding a pop of colour to your outfit through the outfit of your accessories can go a long way to slay that look and direct viewers attention where desired.
The second look above includes a midnight blue bodycon wraparound dress paired with some black pumps metallic earrings and a plum lip. Adding a pop of colour to your outfit through the outfit, your accessories or even your make up in this case can go a long way to slay that look and direct viewers attention where desired.
And that sums up our 2 looks for the bold and beautiful breaking society’s standards of beauty all day everyday! Until next time.
