Photographer Kristoffer Juul captures 'Elastic Man,' an editorial for online style publication The Ones 2 Watch. Spotlighting ruffled and conceptual apparel, the series stars model Victor Gravesen and is styled by the talented Jens Ole Salling Árnason -- the designer behind each featured piece.
Victor is lensed while wearing ruffled, wide-legged trousers and impeccably tailored shirts, along with reinterpreted suit jackets that boast exaggerated shoulders. Each piece is accented with the same sculptural detailing throughout.
Hair and makeup for Elastic Man is courtesy of Rikke May Vorm who opts for retro and slicked back grooming which contrasts the whimsical details of the clothing worn in this series. Embodying maximalism, the editorial balances its bold shapes with a muted color palette for visual balance.
