The PHIGVEL 2013 Spring/Summer lookbook purposely juxtaposes monochromatic and colored shots to blur the lines between the past and present fashions. The collection is heavily influenced by vintage American workwear and the clothing and accessories from the stylish series feel authentic. The retro recreations are chic, simplistic and explore cut and design.
The overall feel of the collection is laid-back and relaxed. There is an ease to each look and the male models appear lost in time. Fantastic shots include a black and white shot with a slender male model adorned in a striped knit sweater paired with a slouchy beanie and a colorful shot at a beach with a model dressed as a sailor.
