Ilias Avantiras, Niklas Grossmann and Sam F. wear a wardrobe of muted fall fashions in this business-themed editorial for GQ Russia. This image series is captured by photographer Walter Chin's lens and features elegant styling by Ekaterina Melnikova.
Gracing GQ Russia's October 2014 issue, this muted fall fashion editorial features forest green coats, indigo suiting and neutral knits that are 90s-inspired.
The looks are yuppy-approved and are reminiscent of the clothing described in the controversial Bret Easton Ellis novel American Psycho. The editorial's rich textures blend together against its gorgeous backdrop of painted vignettes.
Overall, its aesthetic is sophisticated, timeless and nostalgic. The vintage-themed shoot highlights looks that make a smooth transition from day to evening and that are comfortable for everyday wear.
