Though the season might be over for many, summer doesn't die as long as [summer romances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/together-valentines-day) don't come to an end -- at least for real-life model couple Milly Simmonds and Matt Trethe, who heat up this exclusive shoot for Fashion Gone Rogue with their romance. Lensed by Alisa Connan, the couple goes country, combining [Levi's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/levis-x-urban-research) denim with hot casual gear from the likes of Vivienne Westwood and Paul Smith.

Running down dirt roads and kicking back in wheat fields, the two models look like they're having the time of their lives in the shoot, appropriately called 'Young Love.' The black-and-white photography gives each shot a [vintage feel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-nicholson-fw25), which works perfectly with the setting.

Check out the entire Milly Simmonds and Matt Trethe exclusive shoot for Fashion Gone Rogue for an up-close and personal look at the power couple.
