Gene Fedorenko Plays Ringmaster for Zachery Michael

Model Gene Fedorenko is a new face for me, but in this photo shoot by Zachery Michael, it’s clear Fedorenko knows what he’s doing.

The shoot, styled by Sah D’Simone, features Gene Fedorenko wearing various pieces of formal wear mixed with informal separates. For example, in the first photo, Zachery Michael captures Gene Fedorenko in a top hat and a knit sweater. Later, a cummerbund and formal pants are paired with a loud striped-and-dotted polo shirt and military-inspired boots. Bizarre!
