Loitering Hipster Portraits

Mikhail T Poses in Alternative and Urban Fashion Staples

— May 5, 2015 — Fashion
Mikhail T stars in 'Blow Your Breath On My Face,' a hipster portrait series that celebrates alternative and urban menswear. The image series is captured by photographer So Jin Park and features an inner city neighbourhood as its glorious backdrop. Model Mikhail lounges and loiters in front of colorful buildings, tree-filled parks and other urban facades while sporting an edgy wardrobe.

His fashions are handpicked by stylist Maela Leporati and range from graphic tees and bomber jackets to knits that boast a vintage design inspiration. Lensed for style website F****** Young! Online, this hipster portrait series celebrates alternative styling and is an homage to the season's understated and nostalgic fashions. Embracing the normcore aesthetic, stylists and designers are looking to the past for inspiration and are illustrating the fashion industry's consistent revival of retro references.
