Michael Tintiuc Rocks Dark, Gothic Looks for HUgE Magazine

— August 28, 2009 — Fashion
The Japan-based HUgE Magazine decided to dedicate a photo spread not to the bright and cheery designs we've been seeing a lot of lately, but instead to all that is Gothic and raven-haired.

Photographed by WATARU, the 'Raven-Black Hair' editorial for HUgE Magazine has model Michael Tintiuc in all black fashions, showing off some super-shiny, super-long black hair. Interesting to see all black clothing in a black and white spread. Stark, but cool!

Implications - Dark and moody clothing and editorial spreads are a breath of fresh air in the summer. Companies can benefit from exploring ideas that are unconventional and unexpected for a certain period of time due to an audience's surprised reaction and attention given to a product.
