All I can say about 'March Through the 20s' in GQ Style Germany is "Eep!" This dreary editorial takes place in a desolate, craggy mountain setting. Photographer Olaf Wipperfuerth captures models Hauke Krause, Pavel Baranov, Borys Starosz, and Anthony Lumeau in black and gray.
If you pay close attention to the storyline Olaf Wipperfuerth captures in 'March Through the 20s' in GQ Style Germany, there's a bleak storyline happening. In one image, one of the men is choked to death from behind; the final image of the editorial sees said model being buried in a shallow makeshift grave. Spooky!
