The M Le Monde Le Melange Des Genres editorial features model Karlie Kloss alongside Sean O'Pry. The two take on ambiguous gender roles, nodding their heads to the title of the French production.
Stylist Aleksandra Woroniecka is for the most part responsible for this M Le Monde lesson in androgyny. She dressed Kloss in biker jackets, tight faded jeans and large pea coats, allowing her to take on a masculine appeal. O'Pry in turn switched over to the female side of things in purple blazers and fitted jeans.
Esteemed make up artists Fulvia Farolfi and Romy Soleimani furthered the girlish aspects of O'Pry and the more boyish jaw line of Kloss with blush and eye shadow, flipping back and forth between their assumed roles.
