A photographer and creative director, Carlijn Jacobs looks to expose peculiar elements in her work, rather than striving for a feeling of total perfection that can often make images much less interesting.

In an exclusive for 'F*cking Young! Online,' Carlijn Jacobs captured Siebe from the '[Brooks Modeling Agency](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/engineered-garments-x-brooks-brothers),' as well as Denis from 'Elvis Models.' The two men were styled by the talented Imruh Asha and their makeup was done by Suzanne van Schie.

In a variety of different shots, Siebe and Denis are shown leaning casually on one another as they wear [matching outfits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hm-x-glenn-martens) -- sometimes even sharing a single article of clothing. In order to add to the [surreal look of the editorial](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles), Carlijn Jacobs uses a black and white filter to highlight the clothing from the 'etq store.'

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Idiosyncratic Menswear:** Opportunity to disrupt traditional menswear fashion with unique and individualistic styles and editorials
- **Artistic Imperfection:** Opportunity to disrupt the traditional concept of photo perfection and instead push for a more raw and unconventional approach to photography
- **Shared Clothing:** Opportunity to disrupt traditional gender boundaries in fashion and promote fluidity through shared clothing pieces

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Fashion:** The fashion industry can utilize idiosyncratic menswear and artistic imperfection to revolutionize traditional fashion and promote nonconformity
- **Photography:** The photography industry can embrace the trend of artistic imperfection and move away from more traditional, rigid approaches to photo shoots
- **Gender-inclusive Fashion:** The gender-inclusive fashion industry can use the trend of shared clothing to promote fluidity and a more egalitarian approach to fashion design
