Vancouver, British Columbia-based photographer Hana Pesut is the creator of an odd but interesting photo series that brings a couple together, shoots pictures of them in their own clothes, and then asks the two to switch outfits for another shot.
Hana Pesut is not only a photographer, but she is also a DJ, so many of her subjects exude a certain artistic aesthetic. The results of her photo experiment are intriguing. Sometimes, the results are comedic (men wearing skirts and scarves, or high socks and shorts) and sometimes, it's nearly impossible to tell the difference between the clothes at all.
Try this interesting game: as you view the gallery, see how many times a male or female looks better in the 'after' photos.
Hana Pesut's work is set for display at the Cheaper Show in Vancouver, British Columbia, on Saturday June, 25th, 2011.
