These photographs are from London-based fashion photographer Gemma Booth. She has made quite a name for herself over the past 10 years working for the likes of Japanese Vogue, i-D, Jalouse, Nylon and Lula. Her photography is inspired by stories, old photos, films, books and exhibitions:
“- They can all inspire, but sometimes it just comes from within, from a dream or memory.”
The images have a natural warmth due to the soft light that bathes the models, and the design of the robot conjures up memories of youth that add to the nostalgic feel.
I’m not sure what brand she has helped to promote here, but think it was executed very well.

I would like really like to hire this mercenary model, fantastic!
These conceptual photographs are from Baldovino Barani, starring the Australian model, Morgan Hurst.
From Barani’s site:
Baldovino Barani’s photography has acquired somewhat of a cult status in recent years. His often unsettling and fabulist allegories have interpreted the ever changing metamorphosis of the fashion seasons and showcased the work of this industry’s most talented designers. Always striving to impose character driven stories, Baldovino Barani’s heroines have come to stand for a new type of editorial femininity: a seamless assimilation between orphic narrative and pure sartorial ecstasy.
This fembot is one intense assassin. She’s really got it all – guns, fire, blood, a saw, and… antlers? I’ll take two.
