American Vogue Inside Man 2025

Description

This black-and-white studio portrait features a group of six Black individuals posed against a seamless white background, photographed by Norman Jean Roy for American Vogue under the project Inside Man. The subjects wear tailored casual and formal attire, including a knit sweater, vest, midi dress, and leather jacket, styled by Edward Bowleg III with hair by Edward Lampley and makeup by Kuma. The composition is split by a central vertical frame line, creating a diptych effect that showcases each subject with direct, serious expressions. High-contrast monochrome lighting accentuates textures in the clothing and natural facial details. The clean, minimalist studio environment focuses entirely on the group portraiture.
