The Tribute to Dorian Gray photo series captures the heart and soul of this literary masterpiece beautifully. A visual take on the classic novel, it would certainly do Oscar Wilde proud considering that the story itself centers around the idea of vanity and youth. Dark and at times depressing, the shoot was incredibly well-executed.
Shot by Vincent Alvarez, the Tribute to Dorian Gray photo series was fabulously styled by Marie Revelut. She opted for both grand and androgynous looks that also captured the idea that this story is about a greedy young man. Of course, the details that truly do this piece of literature justice is the makeup, which is ashen and revolting on one hand and then glowing and elegant on the other.
