Double Page Spread Analysis 2

This double page spread consists on Florence Welch from Florence and the machine. She is sitting on a podium that has the USA flag draped over it. The colours used throughout the article may represent the USA. The colours used also contrasts the colour of her hair. This allows the colour of her vibrant red hair to stand out even more. The read and white stripped silk sheet also brings colour to the article as it is very plain and simple. It also draws in the readers focus completely on Florence. It is a mid shot and she is staring straight into the camera, which gives a personal effect to the reader. She is very poised which gives her the ‘sexy’ look but still looks quite reserved. Her dress/costume is very eccentric and makes a statement even though the colour black is very mute. Black shiny cones cover her breasts, this stylish and unconventional way of dress. Indie artists such as Florence and the Machine usually steer away from the norm of mainstream music. As ‘USA got the love’ for her she may have to alter her image to be able to appeal to them. This style of dress is very popular with many artists such as Lady Gaga who is American. There are 3 gutters to make it easy for the reader to read and also a drop cap for the first letter of the article. This makes the article look a bit fancy and stylish.
