This possessed W Magazine March 2014 pictorial uses freaky fashion to make the city look horrifyingly haunted.
Severely stylistic fashion photographer Steven Klein captures this scary but stylish editorial. The mix of beautiful people, subtle splashes of almost-nudity, gorgeous garments and demonic duds makes this concept capture look like something out of 'Eyes Wide Shut.'
Multiple models were used for this W Magazine March 2014 editorial; the most well known being Joan Smalls and Lily Donaldson. There are also many different locations, making it look like everyone has their own story, but that all will intersect and a wild rump some time in the evening. Masks, body paint and drawn on eyes are used to make the models look frightening and like something out of a bad trip.
