Amico Geniale is a fashion editorial series for Elle Men China, captured by photographer Xiuyu Chang. The project explores contemporary menswear through a lens of avant-garde styling and architectural simplicity, featuring models Cao Chang and Li Cheng Yuan.
Executed across a variety of settings, the work leans into hard light and natural daylight to emphasize sharp silhouettes and textural contrast. The series oscillates between a clean, minimalist aesthetic and a high-contrast monochrome style, utilizing analogue film techniques and grainy grading to ground the fashion in a cinematic, documentary-inflected tone.
