# Macabre Carcass Captures The Magda Lipiejko Skeletal System Editorial is Spooky Chic By Jana Pijak | Published 2013-02-15 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magda-lipiejko-skeletal-system References: [designscene.net](http://www.designscene.net/2013/02/skeletal-system-magda-lipiejko.html) & [mlstudio.pl](http://www.mlstudio.com.pl) The Magda Lipiejko 'Skeletal System' editorial pays homage to spooky macabre imagery. ML Studio model Daria stars in the carcass-filled portrait series that brings the talented photographer's vision to life. In addition to photographing Daria, Lipiejko also styles the model and gives her an exaggerated hair and makeup look. From its [Steampunk-inspired wardrobe staples](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wednesday-capsule) and [bold beauty looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/annabelle-cosmetics) to its skeletal carcass props, this conceptual editorial epitomizes eccentric elegance. The striking image series gains inspiration from [classic horror film subjects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/faberge-x-beetlejuice-beetlejuice) and anatomical diagrams that influence its unusual image layering effect that displays varying opacities. From its ghostly depiction of model Daria to its dreamlike hazing effect, the Magda Lipiejko 'Skeletal System' editorial merges a spooky visual concept with a wardrobe that exudes eclectic glamour. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.9/10 - Popularity: 85% | Activity: 53% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Media](https://www.trendhunter.com/media) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Macabre Imagery:** Explore opportunities to create unique and captivating visual content by incorporating macabre and spooky themes. - **Eccentric Elegance:** Discover disruptive innovation opportunities by infusing eccentricity and elegance into fashion editorials and styling. - **Unusual Image Layering:** Explore the potential of incorporating layered and opaque visuals to create striking and intriguing image effects. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Fashion designers can leverage macabre and spooky themes to create bold and unique clothing collections. - **Photography:** Photographers can experiment with unusual image layering techniques to create visually captivating and thought-provoking compositions. - **Beauty:** Beauty professionals can draw inspiration from eccentric elegance to create avant-garde and boundary-pushing makeup and hair looks. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Comedic Horror Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nyx-x-beetlejuice.md) - [Statement-Making Fall Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025.md) - [3D-Printed Skeletal Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/exoskyn.md) - [Human Torso-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lene-bdker.md) - [Spooky Back-to-School Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/keds-x-monster-high.md) - [Haunting Fine Jewelry Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/faberge-x-beetlejuice-beetlejuice.md) - [Comedy Horror Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nyx-cosmetics-x-wednesday.md) - [Limited-Edition Spooky Makeup Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/annabelle-cosmetics.md) - [Sculpturally Formed Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cyber-zombie.md)
