Description
This black and white editorial portrait features male model Zhichuan Hu for Esquire China's project Stillness, Worn, photographed by Xia Shuxi. The subject stands against a dark, textured architectural background, wearing a heavy layered outfit consisting of a belted trench coat, button-up shirt, ribbed turtleneck, and a matching beanie. Styled by Zhi Yong with hair by Xiang Zi, the composition employs high-contrast monochrome tones and dramatic directional lighting to emphasize the rich textures of the garments and the subject's sharp profile.
