Androgynous Retro

Following on from my wanting to re-create the Butch Walker look, i also took a shine to the classy style of the gentlemen pictured below. I was drawn in by the Jazzy blazers, smart-chic, cute bow/silk ties, boater hats and the overall clean/classy look. So I'm on the look out for a jazzy blazer, bow, basic braces & smart trousers. Lush.

Andrey Yakovlev and Lili Aleeva

I recently came across an article on Trendhunter.com about Andrey Yakovlev and Lili Aleeva's ‘Women to Women’ fashion photography collection. The elegant and moody images first attracted me with their 40s vibe and i then went onto adoring the 'Supersize Curled Bangs' -as the article's entitled- I really like the 'cylinder on your head' look from back in the day (like i was around then?), but doubt i could pull it off as good as someone like VV brown or these lovely ladies, as it needs a luscious wardrobe to go along with it.

'Women to Women'

So seeing as the article said "Every time I encounter their work, I’m floored" I decided to google them and came across their online portfolio. Some of their other series got my inspiration-buds tingling, but most of them seemed creatively dull in comparison (I tend to like alot of theatrics when it comes to fashion photography). Heres a few of the others that caught my attention;

'Cabaret'

'Tramway'
