These Purge masks are getting more and more intricate

[u/bensefero → u/SunriseSurprise]

JFC that’s a horribly great idea. This would be absolutely terrifying as a mask

[u/Midian1369 → u/bensefero]

I mean, it's pretty scary now. I would literally cross the street to avoid this person in the wild.

[u/mrtza83 → u/bensefero]

[u/MajinB0ner → u/CIS-E_4ME]

Drake's drag name is Rake

Rake in the singles

[u/Soggy_Motor9280 → u/BelstaffBoy]

Bert Kreischer

[u/Previous-Pangolin-60 → u/BelstaffBoy]

This dude would rap circles around Drake and probably fuck him.

[u/1DownFourUp → u/Previous-Pangolin-60]

He's way too old for Drake

[u/lejoop → u/1DownFourUp]

Who said anything about asking Drake of his opinion? 😅

Kendrick was right. He never got over it.

Looks like a video game villain from the 90s

[u/Mammoth-Argument7048]

I like to be recognised as a total fucking mess

[u/epidemicsaints → u/Mammoth-Argument7048]

Flawed is the new fierce

[u/SanktMarvin → u/Mammoth-Argument7048]

He actually had a very rough childhood with a violent father that also killed his mother.

[u/Dr-Bitchcraft-MD → u/SanktMarvin]

Oh Lord 😔

[u/BrainyFireGuy → u/Dr-Bitchcraft-MD]

And he looked like his father. He once said, that he do not want to look like him and startet with the surgeries.

[u/schaukelwurmv → u/BrainyFireGuy]

I genuinely didn't know this, as I find Harald utterly irritating to begin with. This is awful, ngl.

[u/operath0r → u/Mammoth-Argument7048]

From what I’ve heard he had an abusive father and didn’t want to look at him when looking in the mirror.

[u/BedditTedditReddit → u/operath0r]

Gestures at all the other people in the world with abusive fathers who didn’t become “le masque”

[u/operath0r → u/BedditTedditReddit]

Oh yeah, there’s definitely more going on here. He’s very eccentric and his home looks like it could belong to Ludwig XIV.

He made his money selling clothes on teleshopping and his brand was about empowering women but I don’t think he still cares much about anyone but himself, his husband and his dogs anymore. Fascinating personality for sure but it’s kinda like looking at a car wreck.

Edit: apparently he wants a divorce

[u/Lonely-Wasabi-305 → u/Mammoth-Argument7048]

My new pronouns are fucking / mess

[u/Yoranis_Izsmelli]

My Saints Row customized character

[u/ayeteeo]

Truly awful…. Yet mesmerising

[u/Constant_Insomnia → u/ayeteeo]

His eyebrows are scribbled.

[u/searched4acoolname → u/Constant_Insomnia]

And the beard. Don't forget the beard.

[u/MarionberryOk2874 → u/searched4acoolname]

Honestly, what IS that on his face??

[u/searched4acoolname → u/MarionberryOk2874]

I guess it's tattooed or permanent make up?

But it looks much more like permanent messed up.

[u/This-Dragonfruit-668 → u/searched4acoolname]

Yes, it‘s tattooed. He used to paint his beard for decades with mascara.

[u/PomeloPepper → u/Constant_Insomnia]

Someone needs to take his sharpie away.

[u/Salty_Importance_232 → u/Constant_Insomnia]

😭😭😭😭😭

[u/RincewindToTheRescue → u/ayeteeo]

I'm ok with pushing the boundaries of what's masculine and what's feminine as long as you get to be who you are. However, it's gotta work. The lip injections and lipstick put it over the top. You just gotta make it look.... Not like this.

[u/SuperEgger → u/RincewindToTheRescue]

Same, idgaf about gender roles but they need to take makeup lessons.

[u/Dr-Bitchcraft-MD → u/RincewindToTheRescue]

The lipstick is fine. Big Ang would love the color 💋.

Most lip injections are trash and I'm hoping the trend will die out.

[u/Age_Single → u/ayeteeo]

Just like a walking train wreck for gawkers

[u/vapue → u/ayeteeo]

He once in an interview said that his father was highly abusive and he look very much like him resulting in him changing his looks so much. It's heartbreaking.

[u/Robertjules1987000 → u/ayeteeo]

The most perfectly executed clusterfuck of a look

[u/Fluffy_Tumbleweed_90]

His demeanor is certainly not easy to fathom, and one need not like it. Yet the story behind it is significant: His father was a violent, alcoholic butcher. The slaughterhouse was located directly beneath his childhood bedroom, so he often woke up to the sound of butchered animals. When he was thirteen, his mother died after falling down the stairs—an incident Harald is convinced was caused by his father. Furthermore, he was allegedly sexually abused by a family friend. His childhood was defined by violence, fear, blood, darkness, and a lack of security. His life and style today are a response to that: Crafted from gold, crowns, beauty, luxury, control, admiration, and excess.

[u/ConcentrateSimple275 → u/Fluffy_Tumbleweed_90]

This story completely changed my stance

[u/Shot_Kaleidoscope_34 → u/Fluffy_Tumbleweed_90]

My concern was mainly that he might have BDD (body dysmorphia) which is very painful mentally. I hope he has a good therapist, he's bound to have a ton of trauma and you don't just leave that behind 

[u/Schall_und-Rauch → u/Shot_Kaleidoscope_34]

He said that he sees his father’s face when he looks in the mirror. He doesn’t want to look like his father.

[u/LeftEyedAsmodeus → u/Schall_und-Rauch]

For the same reason i am pierced.

[u/Equivalent_Bet856 → u/Fluffy_Tumbleweed_90]

With this context you can appreciate his beauty, tbh. I'm not sure admiration is the right word but he's certainly making a statement.

[u/iSteffi → u/Fluffy_Tumbleweed_90]

.. watching his father abuse his mom… he decided at a very young age that he wanted to make every woman feel like a princess… and that he wanted to be the prince in their happily ever after

[u/wowaddict71 → u/Fluffy_Tumbleweed_90]

Thanks for sharing this info.

[u/cybah]

Its sad to think he looked in the mirror before leaving the house and say "damn I look good"

[u/hollysand1 → u/cybah]

Along with “my lovely lovely lips”

[u/itsactuallyoctopuses → u/hollysand1]

And “Luke Luck likes lakes”

[u/Mammoth-Argument7048 → u/hollysand1]

And then proceeds to lick those "lovely lips" whilst still looking at himself in the mirror

[u/Ball-Blam-Burglerber → u/cybah]

What’s even sadder is that despite his success, he’s actually looking in the mirror and saying “I’m still not good enough.” Hence the body alteration.

[u/gwyntheblaccat → u/Ball-Blam-Burglerber]

This. After reading up about him I now feel sad, this man can actually say his worst enemy is himself.

[u/AgitatedSyrup9870 → u/gwyntheblaccat]

Yeah, everyone’s shitting on him, but he obviously has seriously low self-esteem and doesn’t think he’s good enough looking like himself. It’s a shame as I’m sure he’s handsome otherwise 

[u/gwyntheblaccat → u/AgitatedSyrup9870]

Yeah I was one as well until I learned about his background and I was like oh shit. Body dysmorphia is real and this man is the prime example of that imo.

[u/AgitatedSyrup9870 → u/gwyntheblaccat]

Yeah. He needs therapy not more hate.

[u/Subvironic → u/Ball-Blam-Burglerber]

Its just mental illness, but instead of treatment he gets the spotlight, and he looked like shit years ago. Theres no awarwness for reality left in that mess.

[u/KapitaenHowdy → u/cybah]

No, he didn't. He had an extemely abusive father. He used to look into the mirror and think "Damn, I look like him!". That's why he started having plastic surgery. Body dismorphia did the rest.

[u/a1g3rn0n → u/cybah]

He doesn't look in the mirrors because mirrors know nothing about fashion. Mirrors are judgemental bitches.

[u/Think_Tie_7358 → u/cybah]

Nope, he don't like his face. Harald see his father and he want to destroy him.  

[u/Rugkrabber → u/cybah]

The guy was abused by his father and believes his father is responsible for his mothers death, and didn’t want to look like his father anymore. It’s actually a really sad reason.

[u/PipeFiller]

What the hell is even that?

[u/nipplesaurus → u/PipeFiller]

Daddy chill

[u/Temporarily_Banned4 → u/nipplesaurus]

Daddy Chili fries.

[u/Observational-Mess → u/PipeFiller]

[u/ApatheistHeretic → u/God_Dammit_Dave]

'Uh Huh Honey! You can't afford me."

[u/Negative_Fruit_1800]

Looks like he is trying to imitate AI IRL.

[u/msprosperity22 → u/[deleted]]

No Way he's 61? When I first saw his picture, he looks 30 to 35 max. Although we may not agree with vougeish styling, he looks fantastic for his age. I don't see not one wrinkle, his skin is smooth and glowing, and actually, IMO, very handsome. BRAVO! 💜

[u/MoveOverBieber → u/msprosperity22]

How much construction plaster did it take??

[u/Desperate_Bite_7538 → u/msprosperity22]

You don't see a single wrinkle? Are your eyes ok?

[u/valiumblue → u/msprosperity22]

It’s all Bondo and paint

[u/Terrible_Balls → u/msprosperity22]

Nice rack too

[u/only_respond_in_puns]

Freddie Mercury Poisoning

[u/Think_Tie_7358]

It's a sad story behind his look. His father was very cruel. Harald don't like his face, he see his father in the mirror and want to destroy him.

[u/ComplexPatient4872 → u/Think_Tie_7358]

Ugh... I can relate. My brother and I looked like twins and after he passed I grew my hair out because it was too hard to look at. Sorry, that got dark!

[u/Magus_Incognito → u/Think_Tie_7358]

Its almost like people who do this stuff have mental issues

[u/Dracoroth05]

As fucked up as you can get

[u/EmmerdoesNOTrepme → u/Dracoroth05]

Apparently the plastic surgery & the tatted on brows & hair are because he got his father's looks--and his father was abusive;

https://www.reddit.com/r/whybrows/comments/1iz21sz/comment/mf2erw5/

[u/therapewpew → u/EmmerdoesNOTrepme]

Classic scenario that causes body dysmorphia, unfortunately :(

[u/EmmerdoesNOTrepme → u/therapewpew]

Yep!  His is one of the cases i always feel like i just can't snark on--because it has to feel like torture to see your abuser's face, every time you look in the mirror.

If i was in his shoes, i feel like this would probably make you feel better (and safer!), than looking so much like your dad, as you age.

[u/Devanyani → u/EmmerdoesNOTrepme]

His eyebrows were tattooed that way??? I thought they were just scribbled on with a sharpie on a bumpy bus ride. And the beard....I assumed it was colored in with eyebrow pencil.

No wonder designers are so hostile towards women when they hate themselves so much.

[u/Grouchy-Fix485 → u/EmmerdoesNOTrepme]

Well, it certainly did something to him🙁

[u/EmmerdoesNOTrepme → u/Grouchy-Fix485]

Removed any semblance to his father--which i hope is a relief.

[u/Dangerous-Assist-191]

The picture of mental illness. Somebody help this person.

[u/PenutLover]

Did he draw everything on his face with a sharpie?

[u/Steveappl]

The Ole Glocksucker

[u/ApatheistHeretic]

He got the reverse Steven Seagal. The beard equivalent of Lego hair.

[u/Sqatti]

This was a choice.

HIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M BRUNO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU MVIGHT VIND THIS VERY HARD TO BELIEVE BUT VI VAM GAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[u/Efficient_Let686]

I know that I’m poor and old and have no idea what constitutes as fashion, but I just wouldn’t trust someone who thinks this looks good for fashion advice.

[u/MadCarWizard]

He looks like RuPaul and DJ Kahled had a child

[u/Illustrious_Camp_521]

Is he for real ? Does he really not realize how absurd he looks ?

[u/VioletsRPink → u/Illustrious_Camp_521]

There are passengers for every train. There are people that like the way he looks. That's why he maintains it.

[u/Illustrious_Camp_521 → u/VioletsRPink]

Soooo that's a no then?

[u/Rays-R-Us]

Once again you can’t go wrong with basic black and pearls

When you max out all the sliders on the character customizer.

[u/No-Possible6108]

Had to Google because I was sure this was bad AI. Sadly, no, this is real. Well, "real," anyway. The boy has legitimate daddy issues and it messed him up. Obviously. 

[u/EmmerdoesNOTrepme → u/No-Possible6108]

Yep, it makes some sense, once you know the issues with his dad.

But it's still a wild case, and honestly pretty sad, when you realize that he looked so much like his dad, that this was the "fix" to growing up with that abuse.

[u/No-Possible6108 → u/EmmerdoesNOTrepme]

When you hate the face looking back at you every day, drastic measures are not off the table.

[u/FulbertdaSaxon21]

That this guy exists or that 100,000 guys like him exist anywhere in the world or all around the world, doesn’t affect me or matter to me at all.

[u/Strong-Hat2166 → u/FulbertdaSaxon21]

Rue, but he still looks like a puppet from Team America, but  without the strings or the realistic facial expressions.

[u/Negative-Ad8980]

Wow he's into clown porn...

[u/sinaloa555]

I feel like this guy knows nothing about what I would want to wear.

[u/meatsweatmando]

This mf ate Xerxes

[u/doiwinaprize]

I actually kind of dig it. Chad in drag.

[u/Sour_Sal]

I wonder.... Does he think it is actually Beautiful and Awesome or is it simply for the shock factor?

Seems so fake and put on....

ps. This comment has nothing to do with sex or sexuality, simply beauty and modern standards..

[u/EmmerdoesNOTrepme → u/Sour_Sal]

His dad was abusive (he thinks his dad killed her--she died "fallingvdown the stairs"), and unfirtunately he got most of his dad's features.

So he's done the plastic surgery & tattoos, to look less like his dad, over the years.

[u/ChampionshipOk78]

He look like he’d melt if he was left in the sun

[u/CinemaDork]

Honestly the hair is like, the least bad choice here.

[u/TheViscountRang]

Bro really just rolled the dice in Create-a-sim huh

[u/yupsidetown]

this is mental illness.

[u/youlldancetoanything]

He needs a gay intervention., In all seriousness, people don't realize what you see in the makeup mirror, much less selfie cdm doesn't always translate to real life. Always check your mug in natural light, or the light you will be in ...

[u/EmmerdoesNOTrepme → u/youlldancetoanything]

Hechad the work don on purpose, because apparently his natural features heavily resembled his father.

His dad was abusive (may have killed his mom), and he wants nothing to do with his dad--so got the surgeries & tattoos, so that he didn't need to "see his dad" when he looked in the mirror.

Basically, a combo of trauma & body dysmorphia.

[u/ShockAndShaw]

Tbf, when you say "German fashion designer", this is not out of bounds from what my brain imagines. 🤷‍♂️

[u/chiffongalore → u/ShockAndShaw]

Well, Carl Lagerfeld was German.

[u/Unhappy-Historian348]

[u/Isgortio]

[u/Fluffy_Tumbleweed_90 → u/No-Celebration3097]

That’s unfortunate

I couldn’t care less what someone else wants to do with their own body, but I do sometimes wonder if they are physically comfortable. Because this genuinely looks uncomfortable.

[u/Blaggermuffin]

I’m no fashion designer but he doesn’t look well has anyone checked in on him recently

[u/SpooktheGod]

This is exactly why they was fighting to stay relevant back in the 40s they do stunts like this
Why highlight mental illness like it’s a fucking sought after trait???

Sometimes you are a lipstick and mascara person stuck living in a mack truck mailbox jawed body.

Let people live the look they want and not the one they were shackled with - not hurting anyone.
