Trend Hunter has featured the ethereal and fantastic still photography of Austrian artist Bela Borsodi before.
Borsodi, whose work revolves around the fashion world, offers a dire critique of that industry with his surreal and bizarre images, all of which are completely devoid of the customary super-slender models with vacant looks on their faces.
Wicked Halo says, "With Bela, we get equal parts caricature and vanguard, and products that stand on its own. Instead of models, he resorts to all sorts of objects to aid in the spotlight, be it balloons, wires, collages, illustrations, and all that you can think of."
