Photographer Holly Burnham captures "Katana", a captivating editorial exclusive for Glassbook Magazine. This fashion story highlights dramatic hair and makeup looks that are rocker-inspired and extreme in their visual aesthetic.

Makeup artist Caitlyn Meyer creates model Echo Nittolitto's pale-faced beauty looks that consist of colored and bleached brows as well as [heavy eyeliner applications](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/annabelle-cosmetics).

She works alongside hair stylist Holly Burnham, who creates Echo's angular and side-shaved coif. The model dons super-short bangs, shaved sides and a choppy pixie coif that is [gothic in its inspiration](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gothic-revival). The goth beauty poses in a darkened studio setting and pulls off a range of [dramatic and theatrical beauty looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren). These Glassbook Magazine looks defy tradition and instead dare to take a risk when it comes to their style aesthetic.
