Stoic Slicked-Back Ads

The Twenty(2)Too Fall/Winter 2012 Cam­paign Redefines Modern Classics

The Twenty(2)Too’s Fall/Winter 2012 cam­paign proves that nothing is more sophisticated than an all-black palette. Starring Allure models Kaan Tilki and Mihai Dobre, this advertorial is both stoic and surreal.

Captured by TibI Clenci, the duo are stoic and composed in statuesque portraits that emphasized their slicked-back hair. Styled by the label's designer Mihai Dan Zarug, Kaan and Mihai are clad in a series of contemporary classics that feature accent details and modern cuts. Structured silhouettes, tone blocking and a mix of varying textures take center stage in this sharp menswear line.

The Twenty(2)Too’s Fall/Winter 2012 campaign is tailored to perfection. With an abundance of layered jackets, clean-cut coats and leather panelling, this minimalist collection highlights bold basics that are versatile and multi-functional additions to any established wardrobe.
