Model Sebastian Spence seems to play the part of a stylish tourist in this intriguing editorial for Client Style Guide. Photographer Ian Cole captures Spence sticking out like a sore thumb on some empty streets in London.
Some of these rainy day fashion photos feature Spence filming the sights all around him, while in others he stands, staring blankly ahead with a camera hanging around his neck. This reinforces the idea that this well-dressed young man is a tourist, because someone who's already seen all of the sights seems less likely to be wandering the streets with a well-secured camera.
This series is filled with warm jackets, vests, hats and other pieces of rainy day apparel. One photo focuses on Spence’s shoes, which are bright red. This tourist-themed fashion series shows travelers how to stand out in style.
