Model Tony Perlo fronts photographer Agustin Fallas' 'Zealot' editorial that features modern mullet hairstyles. Synonymous with the late 80s and early 90s, mullet hair is given a bad rep thanks to its business in the front, party in the back slogan.
The half short and half long hairstyle is donned by Perlo as the model also sports a retro wardrobe. Embracing a retro character, the model styles himself while getting some help from Giorgia Faga. Celebrating the modern mullet, this F****** Young! Online exclusive features a handful of nostalgic fashions that are also made modern and effortlessly cool.
These include ornate leather jackets and workwear-inspired jumpsuits from labels that include Adidas, Dr. Martens and Alpha Industries among others.
