British label John Lewis recently dropped their lookbook for Spring/Summer 14. The brainchild of Irish designer Orla Kiely, John Lewis' 150th anniversary collection features creative prints paired with comfortable & ready-to-wear menswear pieces. UK-based South African male model Mac Phiri was chosen to represent the brand for this debut collaboration between Kiely and John Lewis. Phiri has been previously spotted in editorial campaigns and runways for KTZ, Spencer Hart, Vivienne Westwood, and Billy Reid among other renowned fashion designers and houses. He's definitely the perfect choice to sport this S/S 14 collection. Scroll through our gallery above to view the photographs and if you want to talk about it, tweet @okayafrica with #macphiri.
