606 for Carbon Copy Magazine

Another menswear story I worked on with Alexandra Leese, this time for Carbon Copy magazine - the brother publication to Client.  Alex was inspired by old school Brooklyn jazz clubs in the 40's for this story, so I pulled in a lot of hats, pinstripes, bow ties and waistcoats for this story from tailors like Ede & Ravenscroft and Hardy Aimes to mix with more contemporary brands like Pringle of Scotland, Kris Van Assche and Vivienne Westwood MAN, plus a few cool pieces from young menswear designer Jaehwan Park.  .  I think my favorite image is one directly below with the grey waistcoat, pinstriped shirt and baggy pleated camouflage trousers from Kenzo.

This is by far one of my favorite editorials I've worked on.  It was a feature on the SS13 collection by Acne Studios and it was my first time working with Mark Shearwood, who've I've since worked on a few others stories with. I found the styling of Acne's catwalk presentation to be quite heavy and weighed down, so I really wanted to lighten that up in this story by not doing quite so much layering.  Super happy with the result and I love how both these girls worked together - they almost look like the same girl except you'll notice Mary's eyebrows are quite dark whereas Marina's are bleached out to look like they aren't even there.
