The Dukes editorial showcases clothing from the Prada Fall/Winter 2012 collection. The editorial depicts 19th century gentlemanly style that has succumbed slightly to some craziness -- as if the mercury in their top hats has started to go to their heads.
Obviously classic, the fashion shown in this editorial is wearable today for those who have the funds and are invited to the places where it is appropriate to wear Prada. Elegant coats with fur collars are matched with well-fitted suits. Perfect for hosting a dinner party at your estate home before the polo match tomorrow.
Models Alexander Beck, Florian Van Bael and Lowell Tautchin are shot by photographer Tisch and styled by Toshio Takeda. The Dukes editorial can be seen in the October issue of HUgE magazine.
