It's April, which means it's high time to dust off leisure suits like the white one in the first image from 'Paper Boys' in Surface Magazine above. The all-white tailored suit is given a modern upgrade with a coordinating shirt and tie, and the whole outfit is topped off with a black bowler cap.
The rest of 'Paper Boys' in Surface Magazine follows this theme of adding a modern update to classic menswear. Above, you'll see cardigans and messenger bags, velvety blazers and long windbreaker jackets.
