Photographer Gary Chew captures Rafael Moreno in 'Concrete Desert', an architectural image series that embodies a clean aesthetic of minimalism. The Diva Models face poses in front of an industrial backdrop while donning the edgy designs of Joyan Chan.
Rafael sports the designer's structured tops, pleated pants and pulls off a slicked back coif. His overall look is modern and reflective of a militant style aesthetic. Designer Joyan Chan's pieces are dramatically layered, revealing pleated design details and overlapping elements that are subtly sculptural.
Gary Chew's 'Concrete Desert' image series embodies minimalism. The fashion story shines a light on modernist menswear looks that are masculine and utilitarian. The pieces remix traditional workwear silhouettes and transform familiar basics into show-stopping statement pieces.
