The [edgy punk-chic style](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirty-looks) in the Hard Boiled Wonderland 2010 lookbook puts beauty in a whole new light.

Designer Breeyn McCarney originated the concept from 'The Ruins Of Detroit,' a photographic project by Yves Marchand and Romain Meffre. This piece depicts the struggle in finding beauty in a place of despair, which McCarney thoroughly portrays in the story of her designs. With [small shots of color](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-future-is-not-set) and spot-lit lighting, these shots definitely draw our eyes to the bright and hopeful hues amidst the [dark, greyscale tones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25).
