It’s usually construed as an insult to invade someone’s personal space, but the guys behind Close Up and Private do it with a certain panche is incredibly hard to achieve. The result is an innovative collection of menswear photography keeps things interesting without crossing the thin line into pure abstraction. This collection of images for spring/summer 2012 are no different, highlighting some excellent pieces with unmatched vibrancy. Vintage striped prep-school ties offer a main source of stylistic flair, accompanied by a variety of sportcoats and cutaway collar shirts that bring the looks together with a delicate touch. Classics like sand-suede desert boots and thick-rimmed glasses give this collection an old-school appeal only elevated by the clever nature of the photographs.
