Replica Man Magazine

Jul 2026

It is Waterproof Shatterproof Proof for Replica Man Magazine acts as a compelling exercise in juxtaposition, where high-concept luxury fashion meets the grit and unpredictability of domestic and industrial environments. Through the lens of photographer Ben Taylor, the series masterfully balances an editorial sensibility with a grounded lifestyle aesthetic. The project leans into the fluidity of contemporary menswear, featuring models Adrian Timmermanns and Jesse Rinderknecht who inhabit an array of layered silhouettes that oscillate between sharp, formal tailoring and deconstructed casual wear. With styling by fashion editor Vincent Pons, the imagery highlights a sophisticated, monochromatic color palette punctuated by bold textural elements like faux-fur, tweed, and structured neck ruffs. Utilizing natural light throughout, the compositions exploit the contrast between organic outdoor foliage and the clinical, geometric constraints of greenhouses and tiled interiors. Every frame feels deliberate, moving away from traditional catalogue polish toward a more raw, intimate portrait style. By integrating unconventional accessories and layering tailored blazers with rubber boots or utilitarian jackets, the work challenges the boundaries of traditional masculinity. With the meticulous hair styling of Nicolas Philippon and precise casting by Andrea Prato and Daniel von der Graf, the collection serves as a visual exploration of how high-fashion garments can recalibrate within ordinary, everyday spaces, ultimately proving that true style is as resilient as the subjects themselves.
