Providing a clearer look at Fifth Aveneue Shoe Repair’s fall 2010 collection, photographer Nils Odier follows up his campaign for the label with a lookbook featuring Oscar Spendrup. Styled by Sofia Ericson with hair by Tony Lundström and make-up by Ingnacio Alonso, Oscar adds a grounded element to the latest collection from the Swedish label.

Abstract shapes meet the fitted for Fifth Avenue Shoe Repair’s fall 2010 collection. Dressed in black with a touch of navy and red, the Swedish label blends their signature quirks with a touch of simple country living and a tailored sensibility. From a near shrunken suit to voluminous silhouettes employed in outerwear and bottoms, Fifth Avenue Shoe Repair offers a pleasant mix of the adventurous and accessible.

Nils Odier captures this season’s story from Fifth Avenue Shoe Repair. Transformed into surreal figures of the imagination, Wiktor Hansson and Rasmus E. of Mikas Stockholm represent the contrasting natures of spring’s collection. Fusing fabrics with a simple earthy quality and dressing them with a whimsical approach, a complex story unfolds. Revealing characters plucked from a fairy-tale, Fifth Avenue Shoe Repair shares: “The storyteller an observing and interfering character, pushing and forcing us towards change and progression. Always with good intention. The collector a lover of things. He borrows your belongings, collects them, steals them and at the same time captures a little bit of you in his collection. The peace maker once a warrior. Now he is older and wiser, not so aggressive as he once was. He wants to teach you to not make the same mistakes he once have made. The traveller searches the truth, always looking for movement. The most important thing is to depart, not to arrive.”
