Fantastic Man Hide 2025

Description

A striking black-and-white fashion editorial shot by photographer Paul Kooiker for Fantastic Man magazine's project titled Hide. The image features a shirtless male model walking in profile, wearing an oversized, sculptural leather hood by Noel Stewart that entirely encloses the head. He is styled by Gerry O'Kane in black leather shorts by The Leather Man, a Saint Laurent belt, and wide-flared black leather boots by Loewe. The setting consists of minimalist studio partition flats, illuminated with hard directional light that casts a distinct silhouette on the backdrop.
