Cole Sprouse’s new Versace campaign came at a small price.

On Thursday, the 29-year-oldRiverdalestarshared a trio of photospromoting the Italian fashion house’s new eyewear collection to hisInstagrampage. The actor modeled a different pair of shades in each of the shots, including one image with his chest almost fully exposed as he showed off a pair of the Medusa Dream frames.

In the post’s caption, Sprouse revealed that he had to go to the extra mile for that particular pic.

“They shaved my nipples for this,” he wrote, “so please like and subscribe to my channel.”

Earlier this week, Sprouse spoke withHighsnobityabout hispartnership with Versaceand how it brings him back to his roots.

“They all welcomed me with open arms, and a bit of that warmth I wear with me now whenever I put on an article of Versace,” he told the outlet. “I was born in Tuscany, and so I’ve also had the tremendous pleasure of being able to return to my birth country of Italy alongside Versace.”

“Steven and his team are masters of tone and lighting,” Sprouse said. “I’d be lying if I said I don’t take notes on specific setups they construct while on set. I’ve already implemented some of his practices into my personal photography work.”
