Marie Claire October 2012 Dia De Los Muertos make up editorial....

Dia De Los Muertos editorial Marie Claire 2008

This editorial is a beautiful example of taking a well known concept and evolving it to fit in the fashion world. The make up is clean and beautiful, and the accessories used really bring the theme to life.

It really highlights exactly why I chose to do this theme I want to take a well known look, and recreate it whilst keeping some of the traditional aspects. I think this is a really difficult thing to do and quite daring, but I want to rise to the challenge, and test my creativity. 

1.

I love how the outfit on the model matches the colour of the background in al of the shots, It really ties everything together, this is definitely a technique ill be considering when it comes to styling. 

2.

I adore the use of contrasting colours it works so well! The orange against the deep blue wall works so well! This is definitely something I want to consider when styling my shoot. 

3.
I love the hair in this picture and the use of one earring, This hairsty;e is definitely one I will be considering, but as my model has very short, thin hair I would have to use extensions to create the plaits.
