The Obsessed with Candy photoshoot revolves around two things that will tempt many women easily: [dessert and fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/godiva-x-labubu). Although the two have been paired together before, this time around the photographer has decided to take a darker turn instead of focusing on bright lights to bring attention to the pastel wares.

Shot by photographer Marko Arsic and art directed by Teodora Petrovic for NeWave project, the Obsessed with Candy photoshoot shows that indulgences do not necessarily occupy the realm of good. That said, models Isidora and Neda appear to be enjoying themselves immensely. Beautifully decked out in [lavish pearls and lace](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren) by stylist Sofija Musicki, they enjoy their [cupcakes and macarons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/opaque-2) in style. The dresses and shoes were designed by Ana Ljubinkovic.
