Issue 16: Faith

Destiny Unknown

Just something pretty for you to look at and maybe decide your own fate with.

Eleanor Hardwick and Minna Gilligan 12/21/2012
  • Photos by Eleanor; illustration by Minna. Thanks to Alexandra Moon-Age for styling, Charlotte Patmore for assisting with styling, Emmett Green for assisting with photography, and Vynewood Studio for the location. Thanks to Dinkie Bosetti for making such beautiful flower crowns, and to Charlotte, Kay, Louie, Emily, Donnika, Philip, Hatti, Yoshiko, Eugenia, Leo, and Jenkin for modeling. All clothes are stylist’s or model’s own, except for the iridescent Mary Benson dress worn by Hatti (The High Priestess) and the Tata Naka dress worn by Charlotte (The Empress).
