The Metalhead Magazine: Ghosts

Nov 2025

Ghosts is a sprawling editorial feature for The Metalhead Magazine that explores the intersection of subcultural aesthetics and high-fashion portraiture. Photographed by Daniil Kudryavtsev, the series leans into a moody, gothic sensibility, blending raw urban environments with intricate, avant-garde styling. The project utilizes high-contrast flash and monochrome techniques to accentuate the tactile qualities of the wardrobe, which features layered metallic chains, sheer lace, grommet-studded leather, and elaborate harnesses. Through a combination of gritty outdoor street scenes and controlled studio portraiture, the narrative evokes a dramatic, dark aesthetic while maintaining a sharp focus on texture and ornamentation.
