The Lurve Magazine 'Alien Flower' editorial is aptly titled. Yet although the images are rife with [exotic foliage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burberry-x-highgrove), it is model Grace Mahary that the title is obviously referring to. Dressed in [stunning sci-fi-inspired couture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chanel-spring-summer-2026), she both stands out and blends into her surroundings. This is not only due to the patterns and textures of her outfits that act like camouflage, but also to the fact that the editorial is shot entirely in black and white.

Lensed by photographer Elle Muliarchyk, the Lurve Magazine 'Alien Flower' editorial appears in the seventh issue of the French-German publication. The Canadian beauty was outfitted by stylist Peju Famojure, who pulled pieces exclusively from the Rodarte spring 2013 collection. The futuristic looks were complemented with a heared haircut and understated makeup.
