Finding the balance between the daily routines of city life and the everpresent yearning to retreat. This editorial series highlights street fashion photography in familiar-feeling city environments that encapsulate the cool, muted tones of the city, its textures, and its pace.

In contrast, the expanding field offers an urban, dream-like escape. It symbolizes the longingness found in the daily commute for retreat and recovery. “Work and Play” is expression through fashion. It builds desire for the coming escapes: the experiences to look forward to and are counted on to make it through the week. The purpose of this series is to highlight versatile looks for both the weekday routine and the weekend getaway.

This lookbook of images captures the 2023 spring/summer fashion season trends and colour palette. A visual story of West Coast style in this sliver in time for men and women.
