The New Black

It’s easy to put a bunch of sexy, leather-clad men in a dungeon, a dark bar or somewhere just as dingy and snap pictures all day long. Leave it to Joe Oppedisano to put them somewhere equally Gothic but totally unexpected—in this case, a antique strewn Chelsea brownstone—and come up with a whole new spin on the fetish fashion shoot. The guys are just as hot and the clothes are even hotter, but this year, let our annual Black Party fashion spread put you in a whole new state of mind.
