Phoenix wears: vintage shirt, Cheap Monday jeans, vintage jacket, Luca Sepe shoes and Chanel brooch.

I only photographed 2 guys this week. Throughout the week, I was so busy shooting and editing my backstage snaps for Vogue.com.au that I only got a combined few hours to shoot street style and what I saw from the men were a little disappointing. In my opinion, most of them simply tried too hard. Call me old fashioned, but I like men to dress and look like men.

Phoenix is a pretty cool guy, he’s a fashion designer and super talented too. Lady Gaga wore many of his designs when she was in Australia, enough said.

You know the thing I love most about this look here is the jeans. It’s only something I noticed later when editing the photos, but look how the raw denim has been perfectly worn and personalised. Note the faded knees, the natural creases, the left pocket where the wallet is kept and the right pocket where the phone is kept. This is the ultimate customisation.

Oh and Phoenix’s friend photo bombed us too!

Check out Phoenix and his amazing work.
