FASHION influences can be found everywhere... in the whimsical beauty of a child's laughter, the subtlety and shape of a rose, or even a crime scene...
If you haven't by now, meet Melanie Pullen. LA based Pullen, is known for her "High Fashion Crime Scenes" photography. Part morbid, part fabulous, these photos are inspired by actual vintage crime scene photos.
"Pullen herself has noted that she takes aim at society's glamorization of violent acts and crimes by literally redressing what are deeply disturbing events. To create High Fashion Crime Scenes Pullen at times enlisted the help of up to sixty people per shoot: set builders, makeup artists, models, stylists, and stunt crew among others. Her models have included actresses Rachel Miner and Juliet Lewis. Many important fashion houses have lent or donated clothes and jewelry for shoots, among them Prada, Bvgari, Gucci and Chanel".
