Dystopian Swimwear Designs

The 'Embedded Allure' by David Higgs is Savage and Sci-Fi

— April 4, 2012 — Fashion
The photo series titled 'Embedded Allure' by David Higgs has a dystopian appeal. Set against a rocky shoreline, the backdrop may make some think of a castaway theme, but the swimsuits are something else entirely. There is a savage and sci-fi aesthetic to the swimwear designs that is more futuristic than anything else.

Solely featuring the designs of Renee Le Hunt, who is a recent graduate of RMIT university, Embedded Allure by David Higgs stars model Laura Andric. The dark beauty was moodily styled by Yumika Hoskin. According to the photographer, the shoot aimed to contrast the strong shapes and patterns with “earthy and warm colors, combined with the rocks and sun light.”

The looks in Embedded Allure by David Higgs were finished with sleek hair and smokey eyes by beauty artist Kristin Olds.
