'Winter Blush' in Fantasticsmag is an editorial that defies the notion that men should wear black and dark-toned outfits. To me, this shoot is the antithesis of the black, gray and white fashions we saw all fall and winter for men, as each look highlights a different bright color.
Enokae is the photographer behind 'Winter Blush' in Fantasticsmag, and models Alex Smith and Henry Maclure bring color-popping fashions from Topman and UNIQLO to life.
Implications - North American society is progressing towards gender neutrality, and the fashion industry is reflecting that change through androgynous looks that can apply to both men and women alike. Corporations wanting to demonstrate their progressiveness may similarly utilize androgynous models in their promotional and media campaigns.
