Alex Hutchinson photographed Orla Keogh and Isabella Domville for a lookbook for 9 Crow Street, a new vintage store located in Dublin, Ireland. Hutchinson chose to shoot in a mix of 35mm film and digital for a diverse, interesting look.
Mel McDermott styled the girls into living voodoo dolls, complete with busy prints, elaborate embroidery and tribal jewelry. Hair stylist Danielle (of Style Club) created some artfully messy, braided styles, while makeup artist Aisling Kelly focused on dark shades and dramatic sparkle.
The final look brings 'The Craft' to mind. For those of you unfamiliar, the 1996 film by Andrew Fleming explores a group of misfit teenage girls who routinely practice witchcraft and spells to right the wrongs and injustices inflicted upon them.
