The latest Women's Wear Daily: Men's Week Magazine spread features Jeremy Wardlaw and Leebo Freeman as new-wave fashion addicts who are captured by Eli Schmidt. The captivating and dynamic shoot is vibrant and color-infused, showcasing fashion-forward shades against an electric-hued backdrop.

Male models Jeremy and Leebo team up in the pictorial, rocking designer eyewear from the latest Spring/Summer 2012 sunglasses collections. Moreover, the models wear brightly printed ensembles, complemented by 80s-inspired bold hairstyling.

Jeremy and Leebo sport designs by the likes of Ray-Ban, YSL, [Burberry Prorsum](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/london-commute), Versace, [Givenchy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mask-fit-red-cushion), [Louis Vuitton](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-menswear-campaign) and others. This editorial's emphasis on bright colors is a signature of WWD editor Alex Badia.

The overall vibe of the shoot reads vibrant and retro-inspired. The new-wave tones of the spread can be seen in color choices and electrifying and distinctive styling that is both eye-catching and memorable.
