Designer Raf Simons is known for creating men's fashion designs that are both eccentric and high-end, with the editorials that his work is so often included in always looking to illustrate this.
In one editorial that was done for '10 Men' magazine, an unconventional fashion publication that values ground-breaking efforts, photographer Dominick Sheldon captured models Aled Williams and Kari Timsson. Getting help from stylist Hector Castro, the editorial does well in showcasing the originality of designer Raf Simons.
Dark shadows give certain photos a Gothic edge. Others show the models laying on a dirt ground or against fences and trees -- giving the imagery a creepy vibe that's reminiscent of scenes that might be portrayed in vintage horror films. This is maintained by the strange poses performed by Aled Williams and Kari Timsson, who are made to look either dazed or dead in the shots.
