Model Emil Andersson stars in 'Flesh,' an editorial that boasts a series of raw and candid rocker portraits. Channeling a rock god, Emil poses in hippie and [grunge-inspired fashions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-october-collection) along with suited staples that are a tad more formal in their overall aesthetic.

Styling for this editorial is courtesy of Bodo Ernle who handpicks a wardrobe from Only and Sons, Tiger of Sweden and [Scotch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/joe-jonas-and-scotch-soda) and [Soda](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mountain-dew-baja-blast-under-eye-patches) among other names. This editorial's most eye-catching staples are its accessories that include bandanas and patterned scarves -- reminiscent of Guns and Roses front man Axl Rose.

'Flesh' is a rocker portrait series, lensed for style publication The Ones 2 Watch and boasts photography by Harling-­Darsell, hair and makeup by Jodi Gardner and an editorial design by Rosie Daly.
