The Feminine Mystique

One of the most intriguing elements of a fashion editorial is its ability to illustrate contradictions: high and low, dark and light, masculine and feminine. Some of the best designers in the world get this creative balance just right. In this shoot for #SFX, our 10-year anniversary coffee-table book published by Assouline, we explore the contrasts between a gritty urban landscape and the interior world of a woman who lives above the fray. Starring All-American model Hilary Rhoda in looks that prove that opposites really do attract, the spirit of the modern woman comes to life.
