Arena Homme + A Melody Maker Situation 2026

Description

This black-and-white editorial portrait features a bald man with a short beard and mustache, captured in a close-up composition. He wears a dark, heavily textured button-up shirt with ribbed knit details and a prominent statement ring on his hand, which is raised to cover his eyes and forehead while he yawns or calls out with an open mouth. The lighting is direct and high-contrast, casting deep shadows against a dark background. Photography by Alasdair McLellan with hair styling by Matt Mulhall and casting by Piotr Chamier for Arena Homme +.
