10 Magazine: Black Swan

Sep 2025

Black Swan is a fashion editorial produced for 10 Magazine that explores the intersection of high-fashion silhouettes and rural environments. Photographed by Josh Hight, the series leans into an earthy, moody aesthetic, placing intricate evening gowns and structured outerwear against vast, sunburnt meadows and dense woodland foliage. The project features model Sophie Patrece Embleton, with fashion styling by Garth Spencer emphasizing the contrast between delicate sheer fabrics, sequins, and rugged leather. Using natural light, the editorial employs both monochromatic and warm-toned color palettes to capture a tactile quality. Hair by Hiroshi Matsushita and makeup by Andrew Gallimore complete the look with an austere, wet-look finish, leaning into the project's gritty, analogue-film feel.
