My Green Gene Photoshoot World Masks

Masquerade Masks with Country USA, UK, China, Nigeria, Brazil FlagsRecently I was commissioned to make a range of masquerade masks with a Flag theme – including countries as Brazil, China, United Kingdom, USA, Canada and of course, Nigeria.

I started to produce the main bases which were all hand-painted with multiple coats of paint (see image to the left) and then added decorations such as feathers, glitter etc to enhance their interest as they were for a photo-shoot and needed to stand out on camera. The British Flag mask was adorned with large ostrich feathers at the top, glitter on the red cross with pearl rhinestones and a royal blue rhinestone at the top. The China Mask had gorgeous red ostrich flu added to the side with a huge gold flower and gold glittery starts to the side. Lastly, the Nigeria Mask had a white trim, green glitter and a mix of green & white feathers added at the top to make this simple flag mask sparkle.

The images below are the final shots from the My Green Gene photoshoot which are now shown on their website, promoting their latest awards event. I think they look fabulous, do you?

For those of you who watched ‘Made In Chelsea’ Season 10’s, Episode 11 ‘New Year’, you may have seen some of our unique designer masks featured in their Black & White Masquerade Masked Ball. We were asked to supply some masks in the black & white theme and decided to offer some up some of our unique designs – ones that you won’t find anywhere else.

We had a few more featured in the background of the show that you may see fleetingly, but the masks below can be seen on the main characters:-

Sex Party Secrets – Masked

Some of you may have been watching the recent Channel 4 documentary called ‘Sex Party Secrets’ which “enters the hidden world of the UK’s self-proclaimed ‘sexual elite’, meeting the meticulously vetted guests fulfilling their fantasies at exclusive sex parties” For those that didn’t turn off the T.V in shock, you will have seen the guests wearing an array of masks to hide their identity on camera – reminiscent of the infamous “Eyes Wide Shut” film from 1999 featuring Tom Cruise. Yet the masks are starting to move away from the traditional Venetian styles, and we are seeing more contemporary versions made of leather and lace, allowing the wearer to express their own personality through their mask – since their face is usually hidden. At the beginning of the documentary you will see one of the members, Charles, wearing one our uniqueBlack Bauta Leather Mask as seen on Sex Party Secrets leather Bauta masks (as shown on our model – left) which allows the wearer movement, comfort and still leaves the mouth area free for other activities. Depending on the type of “party” you plan on attending, will determine the styles of masks that would be acceptable. Venetian or classic styles can be found here or alternatively, for more erotic leather masks for both Men, Women & Couples, you might want to explore our Masque Noir shop on Etsy which is our sister site.
