As much as I feign dislike for typical corporate males, ‘The Wall Street Journal’ in STYLE:men magazine reminds me of the one thing I can’t ever ignore about them: They sure can dress. Model Vladimir Ivanov is dressed in dapper duds from Tom Ford, Gucci, Z Zegna, and Bottega Veneta for this Eric Ray Davidson-photographed editorial, and he looks fly—even while he’s in a rush.
I wish I could plaster the images from ‘The Wall Street Journal’ in STYLE:men magazine all over the financial district of every metropolitan area in the world. Stylist Joseph Episcopo hit the nail on the head here.
