Pieter Hugo, Photographer, Cape Town

Description

This vertical fashion portrait, photographed by Pieter Hugo, features a model posing dynamically against a warm neutral studio backdrop. The model wears an oversized, heavily distressed cream knit cardigan featuring visible tears and an exaggerated silhouette, layered over light trousers with tied accents. The hair is styled in a tall, upright ponytail tied with straw-like fibres, adding an avant-garde textural element. The lighting is soft and directional, highlighting the tactile qualities of the knitwear and paper panels in the background. The colour palette consists primarily of muted neutral tones, creams, and beige.
