It is supposed to be a creative and a remake of the communism, not a typical communism set of photos. There are plenty of communism pics in archives, no need to reproduce them. We wanted the editorial to be bizarre and something between two periods.

Not only there were jeans during communism times in Albania, but jeans have been everywhere a communism "landmark" and highlight. Rebels would wear jeans back then as a form to go against the regime. We haven't applied makeup in our models, it is the camera's lights effect, but anyways women used make-up back those days, though it was different from the sophisticated today make-up.

It is a metaphor. We go through things that shape, change and probably "scratch" us :) thanks you for the feedback :)

Excellent shots and attention to the details is extraordinary. However it's a pity that the two models stand in stark contrast to the "authentic" furnitures and surroundings. It is they have made no effort at all to look the part. Too much makeup and very little body hair.
