The A & V Fall 2010 collection is modeled by professional boxer Paša Leontjevas--a clever choice to infuse some machismo into the line. While the landscape leggings initially caught my eye, photographer Paulius Gasiunas staged the rest of the photo shoot in and around a boxing ring.
Pugilist perfection? It's certainly possible. With immaculately-tailored zip-up shirts, debonair pinstriped blazers and those infamous landscape leggings, the A & V Fall 2010 collection is certainly a head-turner.
Implications - The A & V Fall 2010 Collection uses a professional boxer in its ad which is certainly an interesting and noteworthy choice. Definitely something I would like to see repeated.
