Christian Rios has captured Ford model Isaac Weber’s tall, dark, and brooding handsomeness in an editorial titled ‘Falling in Black.’
Isaac Weber’s ‘Falling in Black’ spread comprises murky greys and black smudges as he poses in front of what looks like a cement wall wearing haute, assassin-like apparel. In one set, stylist Raul Guerrero dresses him in a black blazer complete with cross-body chains. In another, he dons a heavy tweed coat but our eyes are drawn to the magenta-hued rose he grasps between his fingertips—the only striking note of color in the entire spread.
