The Used Magazine 'Night Flower' editorial was shot for the autumn and winter 2012 issue of the London-based publication. In true fall fashion, there is a dark and creepy vibe that captures the Halloween spirit perfect. Interestingly enough, model Erika Linder has a more, for lack of a better word, normal look that fits the darker seasons in general while fellow model Ehren Dorsey embodies an eerie waif-like look that specifically refers to Halloween. The two are tied together through the minimalist, off-kilter photography style.
Lensed by photographer Greta Ilieva, the Used Magazine 'Night Flower' editorial was styled by Jack Borkett. He put together a wardrobe filled with the likes of Miu Miu, Balenciaga and Louis Vuitton.
