American rapper and singer Brooke Candy stars in the referential '[Candy Land](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candy-drop)' editorial for the V89 Summer 2014 issue. Rather than gummi bears and licorice, this Candy Land is filled with [chains and whips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mariemurs-judge-me-guilty).

Candy is decked out in her typical S&M fare, chosen by stylist Nicola Formichetti. The singer's tattoos have been accentuated with extravagant [costume jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mschf-4), faux piercings and lots and lots of leather. Some of the accessories look more like torture devices than fashion statements; for instance, Candy's metal facial accoutrements and a pair of handcuffs.
Needless to say, Candy looks right at home in this sadomasochistic fantasy dungeon of sorts.

Overall, the V89 Summer 2014 issue offers quite a lot of eye candy -- albeit, the type of eye candy that will have you begging for mercy.
