Albion Magazine Fixer Upper 2025

About

Albion Magazine presents 'Fixer Upper,' a monochromatic fashion editorial that juxtaposes high-end styling with the utilitarian mundanity of automotive maintenance. Photographed by Patrick Bienert and art directed by Andy Knappett, the series features a model in elevated streetwear and tailored coats performing roadside repairs on vintage hatchbacks. The imagery leans into a gritty, documentary aesthetic, utilizing analogue film techniques to capture an observational atmosphere on quiet British residential streets. With styling by Katie Shaw, the project highlights contrast through the combination of sculptural heels and structured garments against the raw, mechanical setting of open engine bays and paved lots. Additional credit goes to hair stylist Moe Mukai and casting director Simone Schofer.
