Eerily Gruesome Shoe Photography

Remi Rebillard Channels Horror Films in this Dark Fashion Shoot

— August 13, 2011 — Fashion

The strange shoe shoot fits right in with the body of photographs in Rebillard's portfolio, which through extravagant lighting, unusual and secretive settings and feet dressed to kill, will certainly keep you up at night.

Staring models Cara and Aerin, or their feet rather, the aesthetically remarkable piece uses fierce fashion footwear to tell the story of a chilling isolated presence. The breathtaking styles chosen by Don West include shoes by Gucci, Jimmy Choo, Manolo Blahnik, Valentino and many more. The dark, yet modish shoot simultaneously channels every woman's greatest dream and worst nightmare.
