Shot by Ema Szabo, the Drag Fashion/Glam Trash photo series is quite creative.

At first glance, you may simply notice that the models in the Drag Fashion/Glam Trash photos are mimicking the projections on the wall. This in itself makes for quite the interesting photoshoot, that is, until you really look closely at all of the details. As soon as you do that, you start to notice that the model and the projection are wearing identical outfits, that it isn’t just a similar photo on the white wall. Then you will notice that the counterpart is a man in drag or a woman in a trashy outfit, hence the title Drag Fashion/Glam Trash.
