Look through the images from the ‘Fete Noir’ Cheek magazine editorial featuring model Simona McIntyre and I’m sure you’ll feel slightly disconcerted.

The gothic photography by Saad Al-Hakkak is amazing and the same can be said for the [vintage-look gown](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ducies-fw25-collection), the ribbon-pleated shoulders—maybe even the oversized [voodoo doll pendant](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/da-de-muertos-dolls). But once you get to the mud-like hat with the strange figurines and the massive platinum wig crafted with [Barbie heads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbie-3), your appreciation for high fashion starts to wane a bit (it’s just too alien-esque for my liking). Click through the gallery to see more images from the Fete Noir Cheek magazine spread with Simona McIntyre.
