This gorgeous photo shoot by Rita Steenssens Photography featuring clothing by Discarded Couture celebrates ethnic-inspired garments with a countryside twist!

Jennifer Bell is the talented designer behind Discarded Couture and we were stoked when she shared this stunning set of images with us!

"Design is not something that came to me naturally, nor, is its something I considered until the age of 40. It came from a desire to do and create for myself. The path of creativity may have started later for me but it has become a driving force of expression in my life. Ideas come, and I look for ways to express them in the designs I create," she explains.

We love the way in which the colours pop brightly against their subdued background, as well as the model's countryside surroundings.

We encourage you to view more amazing garments from Jennifer by visiting her website. You can also see more of Rita Steenssens' work by visiting her Facebook page. Enjoy!
