Nicolas Ripoll and Juan Manuel Arancibia pose with incredible poise within each of these pictures, sometimes fully clothed, and sometimes flaunting chiseled bare chests. Garments by Yves Saint Laurent, Dior Homme and Mugler make dapper additions to the crisp and clean look of this debonaire duo, but it's the shots that show a little more skin that easily catch the most attention.
Sensual styling by Sophie Ruthensteiner gives these spreads a subtle surreal quality. In What Lies Beneath by Justin Wu, the strong and graceful forms of the models are revealed thanks to the delicate incorporation of a pale white veil.
