Description

A fashion editorial photograph from the Pep Tide story for Financial Times - HTSI Magazine, shot by photographer Rodrigo Carmuega and styled by Aylin Bayhan. A young Black male model crouches low to the floor facing the camera with a direct, serious expression. He wears a tailored houndstooth check blazer with a visible Louis Vuitton Paris sleeve patch layered over a dusty pink knit polo, collared shirt, and dark tie, styled with black trousers, royal blue socks, and heavy black leather shoes. The composition uses soft studio lighting against a minimal white studio flat backdrop.
