Happy Halloween








Planet Blue's Halloween-inspired look book, showcasing a rather chic take on the iconic image of "Dia de los Muertos."The trend has been catching on, especially in Montreal where numerous girls coloured the streets with similarly painted faces on Halloween.

Translated in English, "Day of the Dead" is an important tradition embedded in Mexican culture, where family members gather in celebration of lost loved ones. The concept of death and mourning resonates perfectly with the darker side of Halloween. This shoot is a refreshing break from the so called "slutty"costumes that filter Halloween weekend. With a little imagination, accompanied obviously by the wonders of makeup, even death can look hot.
