'The Masculine Collections' in Metal Magazine sees models Julien Chanca and Mathias Bilien vamping it up in avant-garde accessories and layered menswear for photographers Driu and Tiago. Kuki de Salvertes is the stylist behind this frenetic shoot, which uses strategically-placed plastic wrap over its models to add drama and visual impact.
Implications - The Metal Magazine photoshoot has a creepy vibe, but manages to look so graceful at the same time. One of the models even has a large knife sitting atop of his perfect hairdo. The clothing that the models wear is mainly dark with random pops of bright colors such as red and orange. They also wear over-sized jewelry around their necks to add an unexpected pop of shine to their outfits.
