The Martin Asbjørn‘s Fall/Winter 2020 collection highlights gender-neutral and retro-themed staples. Featured in a lookbook starring Kai, Louis and Casper of Scoop Models, the collection is captured by photographer Nicolaj Didriksen with wardrobe styling by Maya Soul Paustian and makeup by Mads Stig. Art direction was brought to life by Kevin Pfaff with AD Assistant Mayuko Takyu and set and prop specialist Juilles de Fleure.
From its suited silhouettes that are reminiscent of 70s Wall Street uniforms to its fringed suede outerwear with a Western feel, this gender-neutral collection embodies a carefree, nostalgic aesthetic.
The Martin Asbjørn‘s Fall/Winter 2020 collection experiments with contrasting shapes and textures, and is inspired by the "hedonistic world of the 1970s, where hyper-masculine met a sense of camp, where sexual liberation became mainstream and people dressed up to get down."
