Ottawa, Canada artist Malorie Bertrand created an [eerie photography series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paranoid-fw25) called ‘An Alien Winter.’ The bizarre, yet beautiful editorial was created for EF Magazine and it features a beautiful red-haired model posed in the middle of the woods. Dramatic makeup and oversized hair accessories make her look eerie and doll-like.

Her porcelain skin and dramatic blue eyes stare intensely like a doll sitting on a shelf. Her glass eyes stare deep into your soul in a deep and slightly intimidating manner. Her beautiful red-gold hair flows curly around her face, accentuating the mannequin-like series.

The model wears a variety of [winter fashions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/winter-2025-campaign) like [oversized pea coats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/martine-rose-and-napapijri), high neck tops, vibrant blue blazers and colorful leggings. ‘An Alien Winter’ really captures what the shoot is all about. This young girl seems foreign in comparison with her dreary winter surroundings.
