Charlotte Carey and Caroline Brasch Nielsen star in this amazingly alluring editorial for Numero Magazine. They portray the hedonistic ways of a couple of party girls dressing up and feeling glamorous. It’s a simple theme but nonetheless, the resulting images are incredibly striking.

Kadel captures his subjects from such angles, choosing in most cases to have them half in and half out of the frame so you’re left with an up-close glimpse of the action, but never the full picture. I particularly like how the fourth shot looks like a photographic interpretation of an Impressionist portrait.

I think it’s a beautiful spread with clever styling by Elizabeth Sulcer. There are some lavish Art-Deco style pieces, dominatrix looks and Belle Epoque touches. The result is an exquisite mish-mash that works because it epitomises the very notion of fantasy dress-up.

Just one thing to add though, they both look incredibly put together in the last shot, despite them supposedly having partied all night!
