How do you make denim look glamorous?
For the spring summer issue of Cosmopolitan Malaysia in June 2012, Eena Houzyama, Editor of the magazine, wanted something different – the cover girl in jeans. So we thought, how do we have a casual look but still retain the glamorous characteristics of a Cosmo girl? Well, a sparkly top of course! Because the denim had a very minimalist look about it, I picked a top with oversized sequins to balance the ensemble.
We kept the look natural and soft for a summer issue. Cindy Hor, top Malaysian makeup artiste did her magic giving Neelofa a dewy yet sexy look. It wasn’t hard to style and direct the shoot of Malaysian celebrity Neelofa. She had natural beauty and not to mention, very photogenic. Cindy applied some Benefit Bathina body glow cream to get that delicate shine on her shoulders and collar bone.
Photography was by Kimmun of Threesixty. During the shoot, we playfully said to Neelofa how she reminded us of Miranda Kerr (Victoria Secret supermodel and wife to Orlando Bloom). She beamed with joy. Thanks to Neelofa’s professionalism, we ended the shoot early and were able to have a proper non-fashion shoot type of lunch! (which is usually the case – instant noodles and ice tea!)
