The Dennis Johnson & Jules Hamilton GQ Russia shoot features a crimson-infused wardrobe proving that red is the new black. The high fashion editorial, lensed by photographer Kevin Mackintosh, is both dynamic and fashion forward with the models showcasing bright hues of red and orange.

The shoot's masculine wardrobe, styled by the magazine’s fashion editor Ekaterina Melnikova, features the latest menswear styles from top designers including Yohji Yamamoto, Dior, Dolce and Gabbana, Viktor and Rolf, [Lanvin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lanvin-en-bleu), [Calvin Klein](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calvin-klein-hair-body-perfume-mists), [Burberry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/london-commute) and others. The looks explore bold color while retaining a masculine edge. Bright hues are combined with structured tailoring and classic silhouettes that make these bold pieces a contemporary classic.

The boldly accessorized shoot features a variety of hats that complete dapper-inspired menswear looks while the avant-garde art direction takes this shoot to the next level.
