Model Edmond Roosendaal is a patriotic rockstar in this editorial for Men's Folio June 2011. He's photographed by Stefan Khoo against muted backgrounds and amid an indoor garage band setup in all manner of Americana-themed fashion curated by stylist Chia Wei Choong.
The styles Roosendaal wears in the photo shoot include acid-wash denim vests, unbuttoned jeans, a cutoff "I (heart) NY" shirt, a killer studded motorcycle jacket and a fleece-lined denim jacket. Old Glory is found somewhere in nearly every outfit, from a star-spangled scarf to shorts and boxers.
Ark Lin was responsible for the grooming in the Men's Folio June 2011 editorial. Lin kept Edmond Roosendaal's curly hair loose and natural; his mop top reinforced the effortless aesthetic of the photo shoot perfectly.
