Popular Denmark-located retailer Norse Store launches a menswear editorial that showcases some of the best pieces in the 2018 Spring/Summer collections by [Engineered Garments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nepenthes-capsule), [Needles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/needles-fw5-track-suit) and ts(s). The title of the shoot is 'Family Affair: Nepenthes Japan' and it is conducted in the Thorvaldsen Museum in Copenhagen.

The suave corduroy jacket by Engineered Garments, featured in the menswear editorial, prompts 90s nostalgia and is certainly reminiscent of Indiana Jones' fashion style, but that is perhaps due to the photoshoot's location among artifacts and long museum halls. The overall vibe of the labels' collection communicates a militant vibe with the occasional burst of color that diverts the focus of the collection from utilitarian to more contemporary-styled streetwear.
