The Bobby Rake Hercules magazine shoot features a retro-infused aesthetic. Rake stars in the editorial captured by photographer Ben Weller. Whether lounging in front of a wood-paneled backdrop or getting up close and personal in high definition close-ups, the model pulls off a slew of rebellious styles.
Styled by Darcy Backlar, Rake sports designer selects from the likes of Burberry Prorsum and others, wearing patterned knits, button-down shirts and classic outerwear garments with a preppy vibe. The model is luxuriously layered, looking dapper and debonair with an air of bad boy flavor. Though clean cut, he plays the role of troublemaker, showcasing a killer attitude and edgy personal style.
Pairing classically preppy menswear with western-inspired bandana accessories, the Bobby Rake Hercules magazine shoot is rugged and manly.
