The most recent (and first!) edition of The Ones2Watch magazine boasts an insanely original spread by Mario Torres. Androgyny is favored in the world of fashion photography; in this series, Mario Torres takes the concept of gender bending to new levels.
Entitled 'The Next Missions Council,' Torres adapted the idea from 'The Missions Council' where council members were shot individually and simplistically.
For the spread in The Ones2Watch, female models were shot in a similar composition wearing masculine power suits in contrast to accompanying semi-nude photos for femininity.
