This interesting fashion series by talented photograher Barna Nemethi features a male model wearing purple shades of makeup. These shots are very androgynous, and the male in this series finds himself draped in flowers and makeup while wearing clothes that are at times masculine and feminine. His hair has even been tied up into a ponytail, which is more commonly associated with women.
The model featured in this series has a pair of white lilies pinned to his attire in a few of these shots. In one photo, he's sitting in a chair. He's sporting shorts and a sweater and he crosses his legs while he sits. He's also wearing a tie in this shot, but not properly. In a few shots he sports small dabs of purple eye shadow in the corners or his eyes, which draws attention and becomes the focal point in those pictures.
These shots are charming, and play around with androgynous style in a fashionable way.
