Alien Attack is a photoshoot from the January 2011 issues of Harper's Bazaar that features two high-fashion heroines in an [epic alien invasion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mugler-alien-extraintense). When I say epic, I mean giant ants and squid-faced aliens. The fashion truly is the star of the show here, which is a credit to Malina's skills as a [fashion photographer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles). The outfits could have easily been overshadowed by the aliens of Alien Attack.
