Here is a preview editorial starring male model Callum Wilson in Candy Magazine. The spread will be part of the magazine’s premier issue and if it hints at things to come, I can safely say that I am getting excited for the issue to come out.

Robbie Spencer styled the [effeminate and slim Wilson](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity) in various [elaborate and beautifully crafted pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kody-phillips) from Christian Lacroix’s [haute couture collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/i-wool-survive). The sumptuous editorial was photographed by Kari Sadli.
