Tim Coppens, 2014 Swarovski Award for Menswear winner and Ralph Lauren alumnus, has dropped his first campaign for the Autumn/Winter 2015 season.

Created in collaboration with creative director Nicolas Santos and photographer T-Bone Fletcher, the images are meant to embody Coppens' NYC home; a city that has directly affected both this Autumn/Winter collection specifically, and his entire archive of work.

Photographed in the Harlem neighborhood of Manhattan, the feel for the shoot was decidedly like a documentary. Shooting on film, the aesthetics were intentionally selected to "blend the colors of the clothes with the background of the images." The models were also hand-picked by Coppens and his team due to their "relaxed attitudes." To keep up the unpretentious vibe, the models were photographed without styling, hair, or makeup.

Take a look at some images from the campaign below, and shop the Autumn/Winter 2015 collection over at Mr Porter, matchesfashion.com, and Barneys New York.
