— April 30, 2016 — Fashion
Red Model Management face Connor McCarthy fronts 'Tender Menace,' F****** Young! Online's latest exclusive by Tyler Kufs. Donning a wardrobe of logo-adorned apparel, McCarthy channels a bored teen who seeks to find excitement in the heart of a remote, suburban neighborhood.

Whether lensed atop trashed cars, in a disheveled park or street-side, the model's poses appear candid and unstaged. Exploring the essence of suburban youth, photographer Tyler Kufs captures eerie images with a high fashion feel.

He teams up with visionary wardrobe stylist Marty Tannenbaum who opts for logo-accented streetwear picks from Calvin Klein, Adidas and Dickies. Opening Ceremony's first Kodak collaboration collection is also featured in the photoshoot and is one of its most eye-catching elements.
