‘Josh & Ash' in Dazed & Confused
References: nicolaformichetti.blogspot & fashiontography.blogspot
Who says only girls can have slumber parties? The new December 2008 issue of Dazed & Confused magazine shows us that guys can have fun sleepover parties too, and even play dress up.
The ‘Josh & Ash’ editorial, by photographer Brett Lloyd, captures models Ash Stymest and Josh Beech in a unique and crazy fashion by Nicola Formichetti, with tons of jewelry and sparkling accessories, including a pimped out gun.
What I really like about the editorial is the unique processing of some of the images, like the assembly of various different shots to create a single picture (image 3 in the gallery, for example, is made of at least three different shots). This technique adds an extra playful twist to a shoot that is already fascinating and fun.
