Project Marie Claire UK · Modern Femininity
Modern Femininity is a fashion editorial series for Marie Claire UK, captured by photographer Morgan Roberts. The project explores contemporary style through a sequence of portraits featuring model Santana, balancing elevated tailoring with textured layering. Executed with an emphasis on soft light and tactile environments, the editorial utilizes architectural wood paneling and minimal studio setups to ground each look. The aesthetic leans into a clean, earthy palette, highlighting a range of silhouettes from structured gowns to layered knitwear and leather accents. Styling details are supported by hair stylist Philipp Haug, makeup artist Kentaro Kondo, and manicurist Christie Huseyin, who maintain a polished, contemplative mood across the collection.
Project Marie Claire UK · Pride & Joy with Tracee Ellis Ross
Marie Claire UK captures entertainer Tracee Ellis Ross in this editorial portrait series titled 'Pride & Joy.' The feature highlights a range of sculptural silhouettes and avant-garde tailoring, set against a backdrop of classical architectural elements and natural, diffused lighting environments. Photographer Andrew Yee utilizes a mix of warm, natural light and cool-toned soft lighting to frame the subject across both studio and interior settings. The portraits emphasize tactile details in the wardrobe, supported by hair styling from James Catalano and luminous makeup work by Lisa Storey. The project leans into a clean, editorial aesthetic, documented through both vertical and horizontal compositions.
Project Marie Claire UK · The New Alchemy
In The New Alchemy, Marie Claire UK explores the intersection of luxury hardware and tactile elegance, resulting in a series of striking fashion editorial portraits that redefine the modern accessory narrative. Captured with the precision of studio strobe lighting, the series emphasizes the interplay between light and reflection, grounding high-end fashion in a visceral, material-focused aesthetic. Photographer Andy Hoang orchestrates this visual study, utilizing high-contrast lighting to elevate everyday luxury items like watches, snake-effect stilettos, and layered gold jewelry into central narrative components. By focusing on abstract, cropped compositions and deliberate poses, the imagery channels an editorial minimalism that allows the textures—shimmering metallic fabrics, intricate lace, and polished gold—to speak for themselves. The work feels both calculated and ethereal, moving away from traditional lifestyle portraiture to favor a tighter, more intimate look at the craftsmanship of detail. The use of high-key backgrounds further strips away distraction, forcing the viewer to engage with the sharp, deliberate contrast between warm skin tones and the cold, reflective surfaces of the metallic accessories. Ultimately, the project stands as a masterclass in controlled commercial photography, proving that when the focus is narrowed to the granular components of style, the result is a sophisticated dialogue between the human form and the objects we use to define it.
Project Marie Claire UK · Luisa Dames On Seasonless Design, Lo ...
Marie Claire UK captures the essence of seasonless design in this sophisticated editorial feature, focusing on the refined footwear of Luisa Dames. Photographed by Peter Rigaud, the project masterfully leans into an editorial aesthetic that celebrates the intersection of minimalist fashion and architectural precision. The imagery relies heavily on natural light to highlight the clean lines of the collection, whether capturing a portrait of the subject framed by floor-to-ceiling sheer curtains or showcasing a neatly curated display of high-heeled sandals on neutral-toned platforms. By utilizing a monochromatic color palette, the shoot emphasizes sharp, professional silhouettes that feel both timeless and contemporary. Rigaud employs a thoughtful, balanced composition that allows the industrial elements of the interior space—such as structural pillars and metal shelving—to complement the delicacy of the footwear. This project functions as an exploration of quiet luxury, where the interplay of reflective stone tiles and soft, elongated shadows creates a serene, high-end atmosphere. The final result is a polished visual narrative that feels grounded in the principles of lifestyle and portrait photography, perfectly aligning with the brand’s commitment to elevated style. Through these sharp, deliberate shots, the collaboration effectively communicates the brand's dedication to quality craftsmanship and versatility, proving that classic, tailored design remains the cornerstone of a modern and enduring wardrobe.

The aesthetic is completed by Bjorn Krischker’s loose hair styling and understated, natural makeup by Alex Babsky.
