About

Captured by photographer Agata Pospieszynska for Harper's Bazaar UK, this editorial image from the project Soft Power features model Lili Sumner posed on a grand marble staircase. The model wears a long, structured black dress with gold button details and dramatic shoulders. Elaborate black wrought-iron scrollwork railings frame the foreground and sweep upward, contrasting with the warm-toned marble wall behind. The lighting is soft and directional, highlighting the contours of the architecture and the clean lines of the tailoring.
