Photographer Pooya Nabei sits behind the lens for the Kenton Duo fashion story. She captures models Lucy and Justin as they pose in front of a series of bright and color-changing backdrops.

Outfitted by stylist Julian Chan, the pair sport a wardrobe of color-enriched casuals that make the perfect transition from day to evening. The Kenton Duo fashion story showcases desirable men's and women's fashions from a slew of affordable labels that include [H&M](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hm-x-glenn-martens), [Banana Republic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/banana-milkshake-hair) and [GUESS](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/guess-iconic-sublime) by Marciano along with famed Canadian retailer Joe Fresh among many others.

From professional office attire and sporty everyday garments to sleek and sultry evening wear pieces, this fresh and fashionable pair proves that luxury does not have to come at a high cost.
