Description

This monochrome editorial image for Vogue Philippines, part of the Reliving Opulence project, was photographed and directed by Karl King Aguña with fashion styling by Carlos Mangubat. The scene features a man seated prominently on the left in dark attire and light trousers, observing three artisans engaged in embroidery work using traditional hoops. Elaborate embroidered garments hang on racks and display stands in the background, creating a textured and historically rich environment. The composition employs a documentary style with natural lighting, capturing a candid moment of craftsmanship and heritage in a studio setting.
