The "Shadow Play" editorial exclusive for Male Model Scene is captured by fashion photographer Martijn Senders' lens. Senders captures Republic Men face Sander van den Hurk in studio as he poses in a wardrobe of [menswear staples](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-menswear-campaign) that are both sleek and elegant.

Styling for the editorial is courtesy of Juan Velazquez Caceres who dresses Sander in a range of designer pieces from labels that include Tommy Hilfiger, [HUGO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/always-do-what-you-should) by Hugo Boss and Francisco van Benthum among others.

These luxe pieces range from [classic suit staples](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apresse-2026) and youthful casuals to transparent rain coat garments and over-sized hats that evoke an edgier style aesthetic. Male Model Scene's "Shadow Play" editorial also features grooming by Clatyon Leslie who crafts the model's retro coif and sculpted brows.
