Ice blue and winter go hand in hand, so it's no surprise that photographer Alexander Neumann selected this color palette to set off the [winter styles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/winter-2025-campaign) shown by DNA models above. The DNA crew includes, according to The Fashionisto, Michael Whittaker, Niels Raabe, Steffen Weng, Frankie Elliss-Galati, Marcus Lloyd, Mark Cox, and Marteinn Jonsson.

The DNA models take on [wintry blazers, sweaters and button-down shirts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vowels-fw26) for the Alexander Neumann winter shoot, but in most of the shots they're shirtless. Check out more images above.
