# Day of the Dead Fashiontography 'Pulque a La Mode' by Nydia Lilian & Vanilka Uses Skull-Faced Mode By Marissa Brassfield | Published 2010-02-06 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pulque-a-la-mode References: [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/Gallery/Pulque-A-la-mode--2009--Vanilka/399765) & [vanilka.mx](http://www.vanilka.com.mx/) If you love [Day of the Dead-inspired art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lush-2025-da-de-muertos) as much as I do, you'll adore 'Pulque a la Mode' by Nydia Lilian and Vanilka. As far as [fashion photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles) goes, this is a fairly standard shoot; with the addition of eerie [skull-like makeup](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldi-and-elladoesfx) on each model, however, things get cranked up considerably. It was tough to pare down this 25-image shoot to just ten images, but I've featured my favorite images from 'Pulque a la Mode' above.
