Behind the Scenes: In the Dressing Room

 

A behind the scenes look at the models in the dressing room moments before the show. 

 All in all the night was a fabulous, shirt-ripping-off experience. The theme of the night was Bladerunner, and the celestial, Zhora inspired makeup by Cynthia Jade Farkas fit perfectly. The choreography by Kassandra Love was sexy and fun, the models were fierce and full of attitude, the music (Domination vs. Bound by Mindless Faith/Seabound) was intense and dark, and the crowd was amazing. Thanks for screaming your head off at the end! Thanks to our gorgeous models, and to everyone who was involved in this great event.

Futurstate Editorial Series: Part 4 (Finale!)

 

Photography: Derek Cutting

Model: Vudu Juju

Featured in this editorial: Chevron T-shirt, Gaze cap and Keiko Skirt

Here is the final grouping of the 4 part Futurstate editorial series shot by Derek Cutting! Vudu Juju looked stunning and diverse in each shot, whether she was dolled up in sleek pigtails looking peaceful and doe eyed, or wearing her best stomping boots looking like a futuristic warrior. The locations Derek used for this series are eerily beautiful and industrial, and suit the Futurstate aesthetic perfectly. A big thanks goes out to these two!

The hazy light of dawn casts an eerie pink glow over the model in this editorial. She appears to be all dolled up from the night before, making her way home in the quiet of the earliest hours of the morning, taking a moment to revel in the peacefulness of a sleeping city.

Long Live the Futurstate: New Promo Material

The introduction of the new Industrialite collection will bring with it many exciting changes for Futurstate, including website updates, a new, powerful slogan, and these vintage war inspired  promotional postcard images.

 

Heavily inspired by vintage war propaganda, like the posters found in the book "War Posters - Weapons of Mass Communication", and Russian avant garde imagery, the new Futurstate promotional images are militaristic, a mix of a vintage feel and a futuristic, grunge look. The images use various language translations of the slogan, "Long Live the Futurstate" a powerful chant for the Futurstate world army.  

Keep checking back for news of our upcoming website updates, and take a look at some of these inspiring war posters!
