This ‘Twin Set’ editorial of designers Viktor & Rolf by photographers Blommers & Schumm is one of my favorites in recent memory. ‘Twin Set’ features the iconic designers modeling their own fashions in a fun, slightly cheeky way for the Fall/Winter issue of GQ Style UK.

‘Twin Set’ shows off the Viktor & Rolf Fall 2009 ‘Monsieur’ collection, and with each successive shot, the design duo looks as if they’re having more fun than the one that preceded it. What a life!
