99 Peculiar Model Looks

From Androgynous Murderer Photoshoots to Knickknack Hair Accessories

— April 16, 2012 — Naughty
The quintessential dainty model is slowly being replaced with anything verging on the eccentric; these peculiar model looks prove that fashion photographers and stylists worldwide are opting for all things strange, consistently favoring that which is double-take worthy.

Clown couture and face-stuffing models have persistently been making the cut. These strange shots have changed up the game, providing some welcomed oddity to a usually careful market. Precise Photoshopped productions are being put on the back burner, allowing for new subtleties to shine through.

These raw and often freaky looks are shaping the future of the fashion industry. It seems that almost anything can now go, and as such, more daring concepts will soon come to the fore.
