'Hide and Seek' by Aylin Bellatrix is a series of images which feature two women looking ultra seductive and sensual.

The first images present the two women sucking on either end of a piece of licorice. As the photos go on, the women are seen wearing masks and dramatic feather hair pieces. These 'Hide and Seek' photos from Aylin Bellatrix are sensual and fun-loving, generating an interesting black-and-white series with plenty of flair.

**Implications** - This particular photo shoot is effective at garnering consumer attention because it utilizes fantastical imagery to induce euphoric escapist experiences from consumers. Corporations outside the fashion industry may similarly use surreal imagery in their advertising campaigns in order to garner consumer attention.
