This black and white photo shoot from Metal Magazine is very edgy and dark with a hint of Gothic. In this editorial, model Jon Kortajarena is photographed by Xevi Muntan either wearing a mask or in poses that obscure parts of his face like a mask.
As I see this intriguing set, there is a clever and somewhat disturbing mixture of the quirky and sometimes hardcore fashion shows that someone like fashion designer Marc Jacobs would be proud of. In addition, I also envision the theatrical component inherent in these type of ludicrous catwalk extravaganzas.
