Alexey Maklakov and Alexander Charles star in the appropriately named 'Alexey and Alexander' editorial exclusive for fashion website F****** Young! Online. The dynamic duo pose for photographer Nekole Kemelle's lens while sporting a designer-enriched wardrobe from labels like John Galliano, Tim Coppens and Costume Nationale among others.

Alexey and Alexander are outfitted by stylist Eric McNeal who dresses them in [portswear staples](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/born-x-raised-1) ranging from quilted sweatshirts to color-blocked jogging suits. The editorial's edgy wardrobe is showcased in a palette of bright hues that set the tone for the season ahead.

Embracing fashion's recent [athletic revival](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/october-collection), this editorial highlights modern men's looks with sporty undertones. Jerseys and gym clothes are replaced by [structured performance wear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/junya-watanabe-x-reigning-champ) while printed pants shine in place of traditional sweats.
