Chiharu Okunugi in ‘Silent Forest’ by David Dunan for Vogue China, December 2014

Chiharu Okunugi embodies nature’s art in ‘Silent Forest’ by David Dunan for Vogue China. The primal aspects of pretty are explored in this exquisite tale of love and longing. Ida Wang shows the spiritual side of style, with ethereal fashion that floats on air. Art emanates from above as, (Makeup Artist) Alice Ghendrih celebrates the angelic beauty of the butterfly. The chrysalis of creativity flies on high with bronze colors splashed across the face. This story symbolizes the triumph of true transformation, as we honor a journey of change. Hairstylist, Nicolas Jurnjack, creates a vision of coiffed couture with locks that bleed from black to white. A theory that states that a single action, no matter how small, can effect the outcome. By allowing the butterfly to alter such change as sight and sound, takes that concept to its extreme. Each image captures our strength and shows our complete dependence on the random nature of the universe at large.
