80s Revival Menswear Shoots

The Arthur Gosse Wonderland Editorial is Retro-Infused

Putting exaggerated pro­por­tions on display, the Arthur Gosse Wonderland magazine shoot is 80s inspired. The Major Paris model stars in a quirky editorial spread lensed by photographer Lau­rence Ellis.

Styled by Toby Grimditch, Arthur sports a slew of daring wardrobe selects that include oversized applique jackets, garishly patterned gar­ments and retro-infused accessory pieces. Gracing the pages of Wonderland's April/May 2012 issue, the 'Proportions of Man' editorial is visually vivid.

The Arthur Gosse Wonderland magazine shoot is a revival of extreme 80s fads few believed would ever come back in vogue. Fearlessly styled, Arthur pulls off a distinctive mix of luxe designer selects and vintage items. Wearing graphically printed sweaters, large logo jackets and a number of other ornately embellished ensembles, the model is the epitome of eclectic elegance.
