French Revue de Modes #14 - Mia Aminata Niaria
Shiny.
ETA: More featured models from the issue. Apparently there are multiple covers, all shot by Thierry Le Gouès, including one with Arlenis Sosa that has yet to surface online. I have two of Theirry's photography books and I really admire his work but I just don't get the super shiny "slaves toiling under a hot sun" look many photographers and stylistist seem to love on dark skin. It goes way beyond dewy to my eye. I just hope that for Mia's sake there were some towels on the set floor to keep her from slipping under all that body oil.

Is the greased up look necessary?
might just be me but I always find her face to be expression-less...
Bony....
Why do black models have to be so shiny? Is this some kind of fashion trend?
