Layered Lumberjack Portrayals

The FT How To Spend It Editorial by Diego Merino is Rugged

This FT How To Spend It fashion feature by photographer Diego Merino brings its nomadic visual inspiration to life with layered menswear pieces and its nature-enriched backdrop. Bearded up-and-comer Steffen Norgaard stars in this rugged portrait series that features warm and cozy menswear pieces.

Steffen poses in a winter-ready wardrobe of chunky knits, heavy cottons and rich furs that are both nomadic and masculine. Showcased in a palette of earthy and neutral hues, these menswear picks by stylist Damian Foxe reference a Nordic visual aesthetic.

In addition to his Viking and lumberjack likings, Steffan Norgaard embodies a sense of power and an eclectic style sense that is synonymous with his outdoorsy character in this editorial by Diego Merino.
