Paolo Anchisi dons a wardrobe of retro menswear picks for the pages of GQ Brazil's March 2015 issue. Titled 'Time Capsule', this editorial is lensed by photographer Greg Swales and takes a trip down memory lane with its vintage-themed styling.
A palette of vibrant hues sets a tropical tone for the season while retro menswear silhouettes take over. Drawing inspiration from the 50s, GQ Brazil's wardrobe stylist Antonio Branco dresses supermodel Paulo in pieces printed polos, matching separates and eye-catching knits that are light-weight and functional.
The model dons pieces from top designer names including Giorgio Armani, Ermenegildo Zegna and Gucci among other labels. This editorial is lensed on small town streets and at local hangouts like a retro diner and town tavern.
