As a collaboration between photographer Lukasz Dziewic and illustrator Magdalena Pankiewicz, the Be a Body series combines art and fashion into a single medium.
The photoshoot features lots of exciting clothing with cool detailing such as cutouts, embellishments and designs that would fit right into a fantasy story. What makes this editorial stand out however, is the drawings and illustrations done over the photographs, taking Photoshop to a whole new level. A topless male model gets a white t-shirt and a pink bow-tie, while a model in a kimono gets a new pair of eyes and is surrounded by graphic triangles. One photo is almost completely illustrated with only the model's mouth still intact.
The Be a Body series harmonizes clothing with drawings.
