WSJ High Contrast 2025

Description

This striking fashion editorial image for WSJ, titled High Contrast and photographed by Viviane Sassen, features model Rejoice Chuol captured in profile. The subject wears a structured red textured jacket and matching skirt, paired with a wide-brimmed brown hat and a large leather shoulder bag with decorative tassels. The composition is set against a vibrant two-tone background divided horizontally between bright green on top and solid red below. Direct lighting casts a sharp, dramatic dark shadow of the model against the red wall, accentuating the geometric and graphic quality of the scene. Styling is credited to Clare Richardson, with hair by Cim Mahony, makeup by Mathias van Hooff, casting by Julia Lange, and set design by Gemma Tickle.
