The Vogue Paris A Man of Our Time editorial will be showcased as a part of the magazine's highly anticipated September 2014 issue. In the production, photographer Karim Sadli assembled black and white images of models Anja Rubik and Daria Strokous, letting on little color aside from greyscale shades.
In spite of the natural lakeside backdrop, stylist Joe McKenna opted for masculine looks that are well suited to urban settings. Present in the ensembles were black high rise pants, leather tights and knit one piece suits.
Functionality is also at play in this Vogue Paris production. Both Rubik and Strokous sported thick belts, trench coats and patent booties. If worn independently, each piece can be matched with a variety of outfits.
