WEST EAST MEN SS2008_018_Ph Bell Soto(Steelmachines)

One of the most luscious and dazzling editorials I've ever encountered, these glowing pics depict Tan's mermen in full, golden splendor. 

Soto's lens captures the aureate light of a phantasmagoric encounter with these radiant beings.

Their androgynous beauty could bring to wreck any vessel, be it captained by an Amazon queen or a shrewd, manly Odysseus.

Soto shoots a Tale


Stylist: John Tan
Photography: Bell Soto
Models:
Addison Duffy, Brady Donnelly,
Jan Vlas, Jules Hamilton, Martin Gruca
Spencer Brown

Posing in a more or less punk-rock looks, from leather slacks and weird haidos (or wigs) to lipstick and black nails, but less aggresive and way more refined than the original hardcore garage-rockers of the 80s, these characters emerge from "Visual Tales" in an editorial created by the Tan & Soto team.

Cover face for a tale





Stylist John Tan just launched Visual Tales (Nov. 23rd), a new online menswear quarterly, to include short vids as well as pictures. Photographer Bell Soto collaborated with him in producing several alternative covers for the new publication.
Models were Jans Vlas, Addison Duffy, Brady Donnelly, Spencer Brown, Jules Hamilton and Martin Gruca.
He finally set not for one, but two (none of these!)
Anyways, which one would have been your choice?
