The La Femme Masquerade photo series is another refreshing take on the fetish fad that has recently gripped the fashion industry. Instead of focusing on the use of blatantly risque props such as whips and ropes to further the taboo nature of these images, it relies more on the interaction between the two models. The La Femme Masquerade series also features stunning composition and lighting that sets the mood better than any prop ever could.
Shot by fashion photographer Kelly Defina for Fashionising, the La Femme Masquerade series stars The Agency models Natascha Verkaik and Millie. Despite the occasional skin-baring shot, the series is overall subtly sensual, which leaves much for the imagination. Even the use of masks encourages this. As much as something is revealed, just as much remains hidden.
