Despite the slight oddity of the Dazed & Confused June 2012 editorial, it is perfect for the spring season. The [bizarre beauty looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mac-cosmetics-and-ella-gross) coupled with the [ethereal fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-rose-sparrow) gives the photoshoot a touch of fantasy. It is not everyday that a women is spotted with butterflies on her face. Nevertheless, the colorful and at times metallic qualities of these insects complements the shimmering, pastel-hued ensembles perfectly.

The Dazed & Confused June 2012 editorial was captured by United Kingdom-based photographer Ben Toms. It stars model Elza Luijendijk. The Dutch beauty was styled by Robbie Spencer, who outfitted her in romantically textured designs. It is [master makeup artist](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-beaut-louis-vuitton-campaign) Peter Philips who steals the show, however, transforming Luijendijk into an otherworldly creature.
