The wicca, the cult, and the science fiction fuse in this French Fries editorial. Models Federico Manfredini, Marty Bardelli, Ilias Laamane, and Lolita team up to avenge the conventional benchmarks of fashion. An Avatar-like look, a flesh-eating monster, a black-magic witch, a shape-shifting gecko, and a pipe-smoking cult leader. Director and stylist Nina and makeup Martina Belletti dabble in visual rituals while photographer Francesca Martinelli trance the followers with images of their ceremonies. Has anyone seen the baby?
