Polo by Arnaldo Anaya Lucca
Fashion photographer and past Director of Advertising for Polo Ralph Lauren Arnaldo Anaya Lucca, has captured some great images of classic Ralph Lauren style. The pictures, which are from Major Model Management, are more impressive in forms of classic styling, than break through photography. The use of layers, mix-match of formal wear and sportswear, and the classic Polo trait of incorporating casual elements like sneakers and sports equipment, give the shots a traditional but never outdated feel.
