Model Robin Ahrens rocks a mix of tailored menswear and modern casual fashion for Trousers and Trainers in Wonderland magazine. John Balsom photographed the editorial, which was styled by Wonderland fashion editor Way Perry.
Perry's selections channel the half-formal theme we identified here at Trend Hunter in prior seasons. Tailored trousers are paired with open-toe sandals in one image; in another, a neat black blazer is paired with a long knitted sweater tunic. The half-formal theme also extends to individual pieces; in the seventh image, Ahrens wears a blazer that has a traditional lapel on one side and a fur-trimmed lapel on the other.
Trousers and Trainers in Wonderland magazine blends casual modern menswear and traditional formal fashion in a fresh, new way.
