Smirking Menswear Editorials

The Patsy, Pally, Pill and Pip Nordic Man Photo Shoot is Playful

The 'Patsy, Pally, Pill and Pip' Nordic Man editorial spread is featured in the mag's sophmore issue. The striking in-studio photo shoot stars a model quartet made up of Nate Hill, Theo Hall, Adrien Brunier and Spencer Draeger.

The guys showcase a series of smirking facial expressions and playful poses while wearing a mix of dapper wardrobe selects. Nate, Theo, Adrien and Spencer sport retro-inspired coifs by Aleksandra Nesterchuk and are groomed to perfection by Pascale Poma.

Stylist Jana Adler dresses the models in a series of hip suited separates that highlight the season's hottest menswear trends, including brightly colored trousers, structured classics and retro-infused knits. Photographic duo Herring and Herring capture the models in the 'Patsy, Pally, Pill and Pip' Nordic Man editorial spread that fuses fashion with fun.
