The 'Rebel with a Cause' Wiener magazine editorial stars model Patrick Kafka who channels screen legend James Dean. Patrick is groomed to perfection by Marie-Theres Weinmann, who gives him a 50s-worthy coif that compliments rugged wardrobe selects, styled by Ali Rabbani.
Photographed by Mortiz Schell, the model stars in a cinematic story conceived by Wiener fashion editor Christoph Steiner and art director Nina Ulrich. Sporting a mix of retro denim styles, biker-inspired leather jackets and other greaser garments, Patrick is the spitting image of James Dean.
The top model poses with a vintage car, holds a striking stare while smoking a cigarette and clutches a retro film camera in a shoot that revives past menswear styles. The Rebel with a Cause Wiener magazine editorial is a photographic tribute to a film star gone too soon.
