British biannual publication .[Cent Magazine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-foamposite) leaves the poor model hanging high and dry in this intense editorial from their Spring/Summer 2009 issue.

Photographer Manuel Vason captured a model wearing a full body suit (including her head) tied up and suspended in the air.

The kinky editorial brings the focus on the shoes and accessories since the model is just like a naked mannequin.

Faceless models are becoming a regular presence in [fashion editorials and shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirty-looks), thanks to [fashion designer Maison Martin Margiela](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miley-cyrus-maison-margiela). See more below.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out
