Mad for Plaid- Burberry ft/ New Face Ben Staton
Oct 2025
Reserved Magazine presents Mad for Plaid, an expansive fashion editorial showcasing the latest Burberry menswear collection. Photographed by B Charles Johnson, the series features model Ben Staton styled in a variety of heritage-inspired looks, ranging from classic tartan trench coats and structured overcoats to contemporary patterned knitwear and matching accessory sets. Executed with a focus on tactile contrast, the project blends rugged architectural settings with seasonal natural elements. The photography employs a mix of moody monochrome compositions and warm, golden hour palettes to highlight the intricate grid lines and textures of the garments. Technical applications including high-contrast flash and low-key chiaroscuro lighting emphasize the graphic quality of the plaid, creating a cohesive, atmospheric visual narrative.
