A designer like Branko Popovic sure knows how to capture attention. This young and talented Croatian fashion designer, who is the founder of the organization Fashion Clash (a platform allowing new designers to showcase their talent), has created a line of stunning menswear pieces that are at times simply dark and brooding and at others, entirely fantastical.
Branko Popovic's latest collection is featured in this editorial, titled 'Unsung Heroes.' This photo series, photographed by Kris Micallef, displays Popovic's undeniable design acumen as well as his penchant for geometrical design elements. The spread features models Macram and Danny of SO Management -- they are shown wearing dark, polished suits in a few captures, but the overall series is punctuated by eye-catching designs that feature exaggerated and bizarre accents like super sharp shoulders and patches of small spikes.
