The IDOL #4 Covershoot Channels Over-the-Top 80s Glamor

— October 17, 2012 — Fashion
Toby Leonard stars in the eclectic and electric-hued IDOL #4 cover shoot. The neon-haired model covers the publication's latest issue entitled 'The Kitsch' while embracing a "more is more" fashion philosophy.

Toby is lensed by daring photographer Michael Furlonger who captures him as he poses against a brightly colored in-studio backdrop. The model sports a vibrant wardrobe curated by stylist Christina Daly who dresses him in color-clashing knit and coat combinations that are paired with unexpected accessories and vigilante props.

The model's eye-catching ensemble matches his over-the-top coif and is paired with a lucite charm floral necklace and a spray-painted machine gun. Unafraid of color, the IDOL #4 cover shoot captures bold and eccentric menswear looks that reference a retro, 1980s style aesthetic.
