Two completely different takes on the same theme, bright, high-colour tights, both are very stylised images, clearly studio, clearly posed, clearly no attempt at being naturalistic at all.

The two shots convey completely different moods, both in the way they are lit and they way they have been post-processed.  In both cases additional Photoshop work has been done to the hair and make-up and of course special attention has been paid to bringing out the vibrancy of the colours.

The top, being essentially a darker image is known by photographers as "low-key", the bottom image, being essentially a light image, featuring a lot of white, is known as "high-key".
