Talented photographer Rankin recently teamed up with beauty editor Andrew Gallimore to create these stunning editorials starring models covered in [black face makeup](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urban-decay-x-m3gan) and [skeletal masks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/super-sour-scary-skulls) made from a wide variety of objects. The final images are as striking as they are eerie.

The editorial focuses on exploring the theme of death masks which is essentially a plaster mold of a deceased person's visage. These high-fashion masks follow the same premise of outlining a person's skeletal structure but with using colorful beads, spikes, makeup and even [flowers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handcrafted-flower-crown). The illustrations are quite spooky to look thanks to the contrast of the black face pigment and the accessorized mask with the model's white eyes.
