Urban Pirate Editorials

Tagore Damien King Poses for a New Session by Jordan Drysdale

— August 15, 2014 — Fashion
Korean-Japanese model Tagore Damien King stars in this monochromatic image series by photographer Jordan Drysdale. The newcomer shows off his unique look and channels an urban rebel while donning a wardrobe of all-black ensembles and leather jacket looks.

Styling for this image series is courtesy of Jordan Drysdale himself and references the iconic rebel looks of both James Dean and Marlon Brando. In addition to his daring wardrobe, Tagore sports a half-shaved coif and white eye-patch accessories that are reflective of a contemporary pirate aesthetic.

The up-and-coming model is represented by Chic Model Management and proves he can rival a seasoned professional in this gritty and captivating image set. High contrast filters and dramatic shadows take over the editorial that is lensed against natural and streetside backdrops.
