Colton Haynes & Emily Bett Rickards Swap Genders in Tyler Shields Shoot

Colton Haynes gets some red-lipped kisses from Emily Bett Rickards in a new photoshoot by Tyler Shields for VanityFair.com.

The 27-year-old actor and his 24-year-old Arrow co-star challenge gender norms in the shoot, which features the two swapping outfits and taking on new looks.

“It was when we were talking about shooting Colton in the vintage women’s suit that the idea to shoot Colton and Emily in each other’s outfits came up,” Tyler told the mag. “I think it speaks a lot to the time we are in right now as androgyny is a two-way street.”

Colton shared his love for the shoot on Twitter, where he called it “EPIC!!” and noted his resemblance to Marilyn Monroe in a photo of him donning a blonde wig.
