Appearing like a scene from The Outsiders, the Stray Cats Depesha Magazine editorial is a look into the streets. Shot for the Russian lifestyle publication, the images emit a too-cool-for-school attitude.

Photographer Zac Handley-Garben captures model McInnes as he poses suavely throughout the streets in a retro-looking automobile. The Stray Cats Depesha Magazine editorial gives you a glimpse of [tough love](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tough-guys-soft-sweaters) and looks every bit like a gangster flick. With slicked back hair and [leather jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/greaser-garage-jacket), the models definitely have boyish good looks and charm. The rough and tumble images in the Stray Cats Depesha Magazine are emphasized even more with the [monochromatic palette](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirty-looks).

Charming but with a hard edge, this editorial is the perfect mixture of all the right elements.
