This Stefan Milev Zink Magazine pictorial re-imagines Shakespeare's 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' with an eerie twist.
With pensive, forlorn clowns, Milev's images deliver a very depressing and creepy feel. The irony created by clowns void of smiles also adds a very dramatic edge to the editorial. Check out the gallery for the rest of this incredible Stefan Milev Zink Magazine feature.
Implications - If you can get past the creepiness of the clowns, you will notice that the featured fashion is quite lovely. The clowns wear stylish items such as beautifully feathered top hats, giant pearled necklaces and over-sized blazers. The images could also provide some great inspiration for a future Halloween costume!
