Mixte In praise of gentleness 2026
About
This fashion editorial image for Mixte, titled In praise of gentleness, was photographed by Justin von Oldershausen with styling by Ian McRae. Model Lia Pavlova is depicted in a surreal, collaged composition where she appears suspended horizontally above a lush green meadow filled with wildflowers. She wears a sleeveless yellow dress patterned with small blue floral prints, vibrant red tights, and clear shoes, with her arms gracefully extended and her head tilted downwards against the bottom edge of the frame. The collage technique features distinct photographic borders and layered sections of the grassy landscape, creating a dreamlike and textured visual experience. Hair styling by Kyle Malone and makeup by Nolan Eakin complete the artistic vision of the shoot.
