There is something very dark and mysterious about the Beyonce L’Uomo Vogue photo spread. Of course, its film noir quality, coupled with the superstar's reserved demeanor really does give this whole editorial a theatrical flair.
Shot by photographer Francesco Carrozzini, the Beyonce L’Uomo Vogue photo spread really sees this sensational singer stepping out of her normal style into a more vintage look. Yet by putting her in the shoes of some kind of performer makes this photoshoot not so foreign to the viewer or even Beyonce herself.
Styled in Dior Homme, Corneliani, Acne, N.Y. Vintage and Tom Ford, the Beyonce L’Uomo Vogue photo spread is retro without losing its hold on contemporary classics. This spread is set to appear in the magazine's July/August 2011 issue.
