CARMEN ARENAS IN RAW, UNFILTERED BEAUTY
After a whirlwind year touring France, Japan, and the US, model Carmen Arenas returns to Kapture Studio for an editorial that celebrates the pure, unadulterated elegance of raw beauty. With the studio's new location as the backdrop, Carmen embodies a refreshingly natural sophistication, where less is more and every detail is meant to accentuate her innate grace. Stylist Maria Jose Salazar curates a wardrobe that pairs the flowing, understated sensuality of long dresses and armless tops, each silhouette an extension of Carmen's effortless poise. The mood is minimalist but powerful, as the pieces subtly highlight Carmen's striking features, especially her newly cropped, short hair.
Carmen's recent hair makeover plays a central role in the story, as the sharp, modern cut frames her face and elongates her neck, drawing attention to the sculptural beauty of her profile. The short style, with its raw edges and precise lines, becomes a defining element of the shoot, emphasizing the delicate strength of her posture and the angular beauty of her features. Makeup artist Milena Cuellar complements the look with a natural touch—skin left fresh and radiant, while accents on the eyes create a soft yet captivating gaze. There’s no need for excess here; every element works in harmony to evoke a sense of timeless, effortless chic.
With her new look, Carmen exudes a quiet, almost magnetic confidence, her short hair serving as a perfect reflection of the minimalist aesthetic. The long, flowing dresses and armless tops seem to float around her, creating a sense of balance and fluidity that only enhances her already sculptural presence. It’s a celebration of simplicity, of raw beauty, and of the power that comes with shedding all pretenses. In this story, Carmen Arenas stands as a living testament to how less truly can be more.
