Ayten Alpun's latest [photo series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles) for the Marie Claire Turkey January 2011 issue features model Kira Mazura in an abandoned house.

Wearing [stunning couture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chanel-spring-summer-2026), Mazura makes the 'After The Party' spread come to life. The contrast between the haggard home and the magnificent model makes the feature a pleasure to look at.
