Gothic Fashion Fantasy Shoot - Bibian Blue and Phantom Orchid




I recently came across a stunning series of fashion photographs while checking out the fashion shows in Barcelona. The images are a collaboration between exquisite designer Bibian Blue and digital artist/photographer Phantom Orchid.

Bibian Blue recently caused a sensation with their show at 080 Barcelona when he showed a gorgeous display of corsetry, Gothic, Steampunk and Lolita ensembles downs the runway. Each garment was meticulously crafted with intricate details and tailoring.

For this particular photo series, Phantom Orchid and Bibian Blue styled a vintage themed shoot. The makeup was very noir, 1920s-1930s. The hair ranged from saucy courtesans of the Victorian to Louis Brooks to 40's femme fatales. To see more photos from the series, click through to their MySpace gallery.
