When fashion editorials get creative like the Max Abadian spread for Flare December 2011, there is a fiery battle between glossy pages.
Captured by the famous Max Abadian, the 'His and Hers' editorial sparkles with tempting androgynous appeal. Models Marija Vujovic and Nic La France are dressed in identical fashions and it gets tricky identifying one from the other. Both dressed in similar fall collections and slick gelled up hair, the models appeal to the masses.
With gender-blending fashion streaming around, fashion director Elizabeth Cabral selected the best pieces from the likes of Burberry Prorsum, Jil Sander, Tom Ford and Stella McCartney among others. If you are among the gals who love tomboy charm, worry not, as these dual fashions are here to stay.
