Antidote’s “Cendrillon” Puts the Boys Straight Into Heels

Giampaolo Sgura and fashion editor Miguel Arnau turn the tables on footwear for Cendrillon, an editorial from Antidote magazine’s Fall/Winter 2011–12 “The Shoe Issue.”

The concept is deliciously simple: put a lineup of male models into heels, pumps and unapologetically feminine accessories, then photograph the whole thing with enough polish that the joke never swallows the fashion. INYIM’s original archive copy names Malthe Lund Madsen, Alexandre Cunha, Diego Fragoso, Adrian Cardoso, Sebastian Sauvé and Gil Soares in the supplied selection.
