PLEIN SOLEIL

REID ROHLING

Ponyboy photographed male model Reid Rohling for our men’s editorial on the Greenpoint waterfront in Brooklyn, NY.  Reid, a newcomer to the modeling world, recently signed with Fusion Models New York. This nineteen-year-old blonde-haired, blue-eyed Minnesota-bred transplant is sure to take the European and New York runways by storm with his editorial looks and lean frame. Our stylist, Jules Wood, decked Reid out in nautical-themed clothing, our inspiration being Plein Soleil, which was the original film version of The Talented Mr. Ripley. Based on Patricia Highsmith’s novel, the 1960 French film was directed by René Clément and starred Alain Delon as Tom Ripley. Key pieces for this men’s editorial included designs from John Varvatos and Black Gold Diesel.
