Endless Motions by Simon Ackerman, a British fashion and beauty photographer based in the South West of England, is a photo series that focuses on a very literal interpretation of menswear for women. First of all, the outfit itself is incredibly masculine, complete with a white shirt and bold necktie. There is no skin-revealing details at all. Secondly, it takes place in what can be considered a gentleman's club with the model nursing a glass of scotch.
Timelessly styled by Tracy Michael, Endless Motions by Simon Ackerman is a dark and moody photoshoot that provides some great inspiration for the fall and winter seasons. The dapper look was perfected with a slicked back coif by hair stylist Debbie Hancock and red lips by makeup artist Jemma Venables.
