New swimwear and unique beach towels by Modus Vivendi
Showing a great passion for men’s fashion, Modus Vivendi releases two original lines from its extensive swimwear collection for 2016. The first is called Contrast and features swimwear designs handcrafted with fabrics of the same colour but different finish. Mat and shiny panels are mixed to create a fresh take on classic swim briefs and swim trunks styles. The second line is called Towel and comprises shorts made from towelling and the unique beach towels by Modus Vivendi. The shorts are in a retro style with deep curved, sexy sides and the original towels feature buttons which can transform them into a very practical and stylish men’s pareo. Both, shorts and towels, are available in four colours and four sizes.
The campaign of these new lines takes place in Greece, the home of Modus Vivendi. Greek models Sotiris Thomaidis and Alexandros Kaltsidis pose on the sunny beach photographed by the talented team of P2Photography. The heart warming images have references to the half mat, half shiny look of the Contrast swimwear and the relaxed and confident style of the Towel line.

Men’s underwear and swimwear brand Modus Vivendi has just released the new images of it’s Neon underwear line. Bursting with colour, this line comprises tank tops, low cut briefs, briefs, boxers and jockstraps offering sexy and classic looks, made from the highest quality materials. The briefs, boxers and jocks come in three colour combinations, blue, grey and fuchsia perfectly combined with contrasting neon waistbands decorated with a new sporty Modus Vivendi logo label in the middle. The low cut briefs and tank tops are in solid neon fuchsia, aqua or yellow hues.
Photographer and fine artist Gavin Harrison has successfully fulfiled the task to shoot this line in the best way possible. His arousing photos show model Chris Artemiou posing in Modus Vivendi playing with strong colours, lights and neon signs in his studio in Leicester. A job very well done by Harrison and Artemiou who captured the sensual and classy character of this line perfectly!

The time has come for Modus Vivendi to show its Summer 2016 swimwear collection! The first of many exciting new lines is called Neon and comprises men’s swimwear in four distinctive styles to suit every taste: briefs, brazil cut boxers, boxer briefs and boxer shorts. All four styles come in three vibrant colours: neon aqua, neon fuchsia and neon yellow. Setting the trends this summer, Modus Vivendi’s Neon Line, stands for eye catching colours in classic swimwear styles.
The official campaign for this line was photographed by P2Photography in Chalkidiki, a beautiful region of Northern Greece known for its stunning beaches and breathtaking landscapes. Model Sotiris Thomaidis was called upon to pose in the new Neon Swimwear and the shots, we think, are amazing!

Innovation meets comfort. This could be a very short description of the new Hole Line by Modus Vivendi. The third line of its extensive Spring-Summer 2016 collection and certainly one of the most sexy and innovative released from the Greek brand this year. The Hole line comprises men’s underwear, tank tops and singlets in highly fashionable and modern styles in two colours, white and grey. Cut outs, press studs and cod pieces are just a few of the design details which make this collection really stand out.
An innovative line such as the Hole Line by Modus Vivendi couldn’t come without a stunning campaign. Visionary photographer Joan Crisol was the perfect choice for the brand to shoot the campaign in Madrid. Dancers and models Davide Zongoli and Elihu Arcopom are photographed into the streets of the busy capital performing their best street dancing moves.

The second new line of Modus Vivendi Spring-Summer 2016 collection has just been released. The line is called Earth Line and comprises underwear and t-shirts in two earthy colours: grey and brown. The underwear of this line comes in three distinctive cuts: briefs, boxers and jockstraps. The two colours are natural dyes and are combined perfectly with metallic silver or gold elasticated waistbands and lighter colour design accents.
The new line’s inspiration is expressed through the brand’s new campaign. The concept is spring’s symbolism of renewal and rebirth. The brand’s optimistic attitude goes one step further with the inclusion of their best selling, and restocked, shiny Metallic underwear in this shoot. Model Alexios Charistos was not afraid to get dirty for the needs of this campaign photographed by P2Photography! The photos, we think, are amazing!

Men’s underwear, swimwear and athletic loungewear brand Modus Vivendi is starting the presentation of its Spring Summer 2016 collection with the new Perforated Line. The line comprises underwear and tank tops in four colour variations, designed to combine two main fashion trends for this season: colour blocking and powdery pastels.
The underwear of the Perforated line come in three distinctive cuts: mini briefs, briefs and boxers. They all feature side and back panels made from a cotton based, high quality sporty mesh to allow moisture wicking and contrasting, solid, cotton based, pouch. These playful designs are perfect not only for the gym but for any other activity and every occasion. The colourways are trendy and modern combining powdery pastels with bold classics. The tank top of this line is a versatile, slim fit design with stylish, contrasting neck and arm trims which you can wear at the gym, as street wear with your favourite jeans or to match the underwear of this line.
For the first part of its extensive Spring Summer 2016 campaign, Modus Vivendi chose talented Greek photographer George Kostopoulos and new face, model Alexios Charistos. This campaign is called P4 which stands for the four new colour combinations of this line and its design elements: Playful, Perforated and Powdery Pastels.

Known for their innovative and fashion forward designs, Modus Vivendi, has just released a new line of fashion underwear and shorts to complement its best selling Leather Line, setting a new trend in the market: white leather! The four new additions are made from a slightly off-white, top quality, leather look material contoured to perfectly fit the male form. The Leather Brief has a great looking contour pouch and a naturally enhancing back. The Leather Boxer blends a classic cut boxers design with industrial inspired detailing. The Leather Bottomless is the sexiest deign of all featuring a contour pouch and an provocative, fully open back. Last but not least the Leather Shorts feature retro style sides with a fashion forward and sexy press stud fastening!

Modus Vivendi completes its Autumn/Winter 2016 collection with a new line of underwear, singlets and accessories made from Italian velvet. This new line is called Virtus and it combines the soft, soothing touch of velvet with relaxed, sexy styles. The name Virtus derives from the Latin word ‘vir’, which means ‘man’ and has the connotations of courage, manliness and excellence. These new garments are unfussy, masculine and practical and should appeal to men who are uncomplicated, young at heart and fun. On a cold winter’s night they are perfect for relaxing at home and with just a touch of spice to the look they should keep you extra warm!
The photographer we called on to shoot the campaign for the Virtus Line is Kevin Slack, someone who understands not only the steamy sensuality of hot men, but who can convey feeling and character brilliantly. His photographs seem to have a special ability to draw you in – or is that the models he uses… Leaving momentarily his favourite destination, Cuba, Slack worked on the shoot in Toronto, Canada and found the perfect partner for the campaign in model Cianan. We think his amazing, athletic build and his bright, honest face suit the playful, sexy character of this line well and are very pleased with the outcome: a stunning campaign, creative, welcoming and sexy, just like the new Virtus Line by Modus Vivendi.

If you are new to swim briefs, you may not want to jump in head first with one of the boldest and brightest colors. We looked through many brands to find great pairs that won’t be too out there but still super sexy. Wearing a swim brief can be liberating on a beach, you feel like you’re wearing nothing!
Here are 5 great swim briefs to start off wearing.
2EROS Beach Club – This pair is available in navy and yellow. It is classic cut with a seamless design. So there is no seam down the front or the back. The draw string adds a bit of an accent to the pair. The back has the 2EROS logo on the back. The Beach Club retails for $49.95 AUD
aussieBum Swish – Are you a fan of just a simple classic swim brief? The Swish line from aussieBum is that. Made out of solid colors with a low rise and 2 inch sides. It reminds you of competition swim briefs swimmers used to wear. Its classic but still fun. Available in 9 colors. The Swish is available for $25.42
Modus Vivendi Classic Brief – Modus Vivendi can make some over the top pairs of underwear. Their swimwear has been very sexy. The release of the Classic line brought the Classic brief. It shows that classic can be just as sexy! This pair is available in approximately 5 colors. The Classic brief retails for 38.50 Euros
Cocksox Retro Swim Brief – It may seem crazy that we include Cocksox, because they are known for their amazing pouch that shows everything off. However, they have styles that have a more classic pouch. The Retro Swim briefs is one of those pairs. Still made with the Cocksox quality and a regular pouch. The stripe on the side makes it super sporty. The Retro Swim Brief retails for $49.00
CA-RIO-CA Verde Low Rise – CA-RIO-CA is a brand that many of you may or may not know. They are bringing the Brazilian Sunga to the US. The Sunga is a bit bigger that traditional US swim Briefs. This is the Low Rise brief. They make bigger Traditional Sungas. You can express your personality with prints and colors. The Verde retails for $89.95
These are a few suggestions and we will run more closer to summer!

In response to the runaway success of its 2015 swimwear line, which included new Mondrian Brief and Brazil Cut swimwear, Modus Vivendi has brought out a whole new Mondrian-inspired line of underwear and sportswear for its Autumn/Winter 2015-2016 collection.
Inspired by the abstract paintings of Dutch artist Piet Mondrian, the new line uses strong colour blocks in rectangular form to create a bold visual impact and an upbeat, confident style. Briefs, boxers and tank tops come in strong colour palettes, with pure reds, yellows and blues combining with absolute black and white.
The collection is handcrafted in Greece by Modus Vivendi’s skilled artisans using the finest materials available.
English photographer Gavin Harrison was selected to create the images for the new campaign. His experience in the world of fine art, his appreciation of colour and direct photographic style made him the perfect choice. The photo shoot took place in Leicester, England and featured new boy Phillip Sharp from Celsius Models. Strong images and a strong collection for Autumn/Winter 2015-2016.
