Photoshoot: 'Anthousai Reawaken' by The Style League

So much of our favourite work on Whim evokes old myths and texts.

The Style League have harnessed Greek mythology in their latest shoot, 'Anthousai Reawaken', paying homage to the flower-nymphs of ancient tales. Soft natural light and exquisite natural settings contrast bold black lips and sulty, sensuous poses as photographer Rei Luce works to draw out a modern take on the playful, amorous nymph.

Nymphs were always at one with their homes amongst the natural world, and models Meghan and Jessica embody this to a tee, nestled in amongst flowers and butterflies, “playing” with the camera with a single look, and finding their own light.

The Style League is an elite team of world-standard creatives – predominantly women - based in world fashion capital, Italy. Led by founder Martina D'Ospina, they work together to offer high-end services in beauty, hair styling and photography, and have recently branched out into bridal work.
