It is often said that youth is wasted on the young, but our latest fashion editorial proves otherwise. Photographer Ethan Hart and stylist John Handford come together to capture a spirit of youthful experimentation and playfulness, combining the freedom of innocence with the eye of experience. Animal costumes, oversized jewelry, and touches of makeup hark back to a time of self-discovery, before the rigid structures of society have set in. There is a sense of nostalgia but also a timeless exuberance, as a reminder that age can sometimes be little more than a state of mind.
