Elle France Version Originale 2025

About

This editorial portrait for the Version Originale project by Elle France features actor Charlotte Gainsbourg in profile, facing a professional video camera mounted on a tripod. She wears a structured beige trench coat with prominent lapels and pockets against a neutral grey studio background. The lighting is clean and directional, casting subtle soft shadows that highlight the textures of the outerwear. The composition positions Gainsbourg on the left side of the frame in direct engagement with the recording equipment. Credits include photography by Chris Colls, fashion styling by Hortense Manga, hair styling by Yuji Okuda, and makeup by Satoko Watanabe.
