Shipwrecked Sportswear Editorials

The Storm GQ Style China Portrait Series is Weather-Proof

The 'Storm' GQ Style China editorial graces the Asian publication's Spring/Summer 2013 issue. Famed Italian photographer Giampaolo Sgura captures models Christopher Bunn and Dominik Bauer as they pose on a ship that has been caught in the middle of a violent storm.

The guys are outfitted by stylist Grant Pearce who dresses them in designer sportswear pieces from labels that include Moncler, Club Monaco and Ralph Lauren to name a few.

The 'Storm' GQ Style China image series features the latest in rugged athleticwear that is both style-conscious and weather-proof for its wearer. From elegant rainwear to comfortable casuals, this editorial sets the tone for summer and redefines a traditionally preppy sportswear aesthetic into a menswear mix that is not only prim but practical.
