Mongolian-based artistic director SEPT is behind this interesting shoot photographed by Murda photography. The project entitled 'Infinity of Black' is based on [photos of Mongolian girls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/still-life-1), and only focuses on black, white and red shades.

The photos feature [geometric lighting, shadows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paper-curves) and incredibly accessorized headpieces. The pop of red lipstick in most of the shots also makes 'Infinity of Black' one interesting project.

**Implications** - The models in the Infinity of Black project are styled in [tight leather jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025), cultural robes and sky-high heels. The models also wear various jewelry pieces that range from animal-faced necklaces to long strands of pearls hanging from traditional head pieces. Each photo is filled with its own personality and style.
