Hogger & Co. Style Profile: Jeff Lahens

After meeting Jeff Lahens and shooting his show at Boston Fashion Week last September, I've been wanting to collaborate with him since. I was honoured to have one of my BFW photographs from the show serve as the silhouette for the JL Men's and DressCode Boston new logo!

I mean seriously, over here at Hogger & Co., we're huge fans of Jeff and DressCode Boston so it was nice to find out that they're huge fans of Hogger & Co., as well!

Together, we had lot of fun shooting this stylized editorial shoot for Jeff's Style Profile, which was inpsired by an image of designer Ozwald Boateng.

 

17 years.

 

Bostonian style is generally trend-proof. Boston men are less interested in disposal fashion than they are interested in staple pieces and a sustainable wardrobe.

 

I created DressCode Boston in 2010 as a platform for Boston best men’s style guide.

I see amazing photos of well-dressed crowds at Milan menswear shows. Like Liz Lemon “I want to go to there.”

My family, My smartphone, I’m addicted to knock-off Oreos, V-neck t-shirts, and music

 

Any given Sunday when my son and I watch football on the couch.

 

If Personal Style is a reflection of oneself, then it shouldn’t be defined by a clothing brand or a price tag. It should simply and truly be personal. However Fit is king.
