# Nostalgic Rebel Photography Agustín Fallas' Tony Parlo Exclusive Spotlights the Modern Mullet By Jana Pijak | Published 2016-04-04 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-mullet References: [fuckingyoung.es](http://fuckingyoung.es/zealot/) & [agustinfallas](http://www.agustinfallas.com/) Model Tony Perlo fronts photographer Agustin Fallas' 'Zealot' editorial that features modern mullet hairstyles. Synonymous with the late 80s and early 90s, mullet hair is given a bad rep thanks to its business in the front, party in the back slogan. The half short and half long hairstyle is donned by Perlo as the model also sports a retro wardrobe. Embracing a retro character, the model styles himself while getting some help from Giorgia Faga. Celebrating the modern mullet, this F****** Young! Online exclusive features a handful of nostalgic fashions that are also made modern and effortlessly cool. These include [ornate leather jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kiko-kostadinov-x-fox-lab) and workwear-inspired jumpsuits from labels that include [Adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/song-for-the-mute-adidas), Dr. Martens and [Alpha Industries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cdg-x-alpha-industries) among others.
