The latest HBX editorial is titled 'New Vintage' and it carries itself with a youthful and summer-ready vibe. The fashion-promoting piece is shot by Alex Lau in a typical style for the e-commerce retailer. The photographic arrangement in the HBX editorial is characterized by a fragmented layout that both showcases the merits of the clothing pieces but also experiments with angles and layout in an artistic way. In addition, the retro undertones surely evoke a sense of nostalgia.

The New Vintage photoshoot depicts the Fall/Winter 2018 collections of brands offered on the HBX platform. The labels depicted here are [Maison Margiela](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maison-amorys-gingham-edit), [AMBUSH](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ambush-5), [LOEWE](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/180th-anniversary) and HUMAN MADE. Each piece from the summery HBX editorial is available for purchase on the e-commerce website.
