The Vogue Korea February 2016 issue features Jaden Smith in a series of gender-bending photos. After appearing in the Louis Vuitton's Spring 2016 women's collection campaign alongside three female models, Smith is continuing to embrace gender fluidity in the world of high-fashion.
Smith's latest spread appeared in the Vogue Korea February 2016 issue. The photoshoot was organized by Peter Ash Lee, who decided to capture the rising star in a series of gender bending photos. One particular image features Smith posing topless in a pleated black skirt. In the photo Smith also sports pastel blue nail polish and a bright red flower behind his ear.
While gender neutral clothing has become increasingly popular over the years, this photoshoot demonstrates a powerful movement towards normalizing agender fashion in the mainstream media.
