Styled by Max Clark with pieces from designer labels such as [Comme Des Garcons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cdg-postman-bag), Yohji Yamamoto and the [Calvin Kleinn Collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calvin-klein-hair-body-perfume-mists) just to name a few, these photos combine some of the most desired pieces for the upcoming summer season. Long silhouettes, slouchy suits and [avant-garde sportswear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/day-3-capsule-2) paired with vintage trainers make for some ultra-contemporary looks. The photos play off of this modern theme by casting a young, androgynous, male model to star in the shoot and by adding some crazy-lined patterns to the images.
