The Modern Chimp’s fall campaign for its accessories line has been released. Shot by Daniel D’ottavio, it shows the brand’s hot collection of scarfs, belts and ties, complete with a hot, shirtless male.
The hot shirtless male is Blaine Cook and the ads reveal him sporting some stylish neck pieces, including a studded belt, embellished scarf, and plaid bow tie. With accessories that cool, who needs a shirt, right?
Oh, before I forget—The Modern Chimp’s fall campaign also features Diana Chung of Ford Models, who is also shirtless and who (lucky her) gets lifted into the air by Cook.
