The contrast between traditionally masculine outfits and unorthodox male makeup in the Vivienne Westwood AW11 Men's collection is rather fetching if I do say so myself. I like my men to be manly, but there is something particularly macho about a man who is confident enough to rock ruby red lips like those seen above.
Considering that the Vivienne Westwood AW11 Men's collection itself is rather safe and conservative, the cosmetic route is an interesting way to step up the runway show.
