The Discourse of Pleasure Reigned Supreme
Sep 2025
For AnOther Magazine, 'The Discourse of Pleasure Reigned Supreme' is a high-concept fashion editorial that explores material contrast and geometric precision. Photographed by Mark Kean, the series leans into saturated color palettes and minimalist studio environments to elevate the focus on intricate textiles. Fashion editor and stylist Robbie Spencer leads the visual narrative, juxtaposing sheer ruffles, patent leather, and heavy faux fur. The production utilizes clean, directional lighting and distinct architectural backdrops—ranging from glossy crimson surfaces to neutral grey planes—to create a graphic, art-directed aesthetic. Techniques such as monochrome film and hard light are employed to heighten the texture of the garments and emphasize the structured silhouettes captured throughout the project. The editorial features models Karyna Maziar, Libby Taverner, and Thea Almqvist, with polished finishing touches from hair stylist Tom Wright, makeup artist Thom Walker, and manicurist Chisato Yamamoto. Set design by Suzanne Beirne anchors the composition, rounding out a collaborative effort in editorial photography.
