Elle U.S. Becoming Hunter 2026

Description

Photographed by Szilveszter Mako for Elle U.S. under the project title Becoming Hunter, this striking editorial portrait features actor Hunter Schafer styled by Jessica Willis. The subject wears an elaborate, intricate floral headdress atop dark curly hair, paired with a relaxed white tank top and a voluminous, structured tiered skirt secured with a dark belt. The painterly composition utilizes soft, directional lighting against a textured, muted dark background reminiscent of classical portraiture. Hair styling by Paul Kuemin, makeup by Raoul Alejandre, manicure by Honey, set design by Edith di Monda, and production by Siyan Chen complete the meticulous production.
