Arena Homme +
The Eagle Has Landed
May 2025
The Eagle Has Landed is a fashion editorial produced for Arena Homme +. Captured by photographer Marie Valognes, the project leans into a candid, documentary-style aesthetic set against sunlit park lawns and verdant garden backdrops. The imagery emphasises observational, relaxed portraiture, often utilising analogue film techniques and warm, natural light to highlight the textures of layered seasonal outerwear and casual garments. Fashion editor and stylist Vanessa Reid shapes the contemporary visual narrative, working alongside hair stylist Kalle Eklund and makeup artist Anthony Preel to achieve a raw, unstudied look. Set design by Mathilde Vallantin Dulac provides a grounded environmental context, while casting director Samuel Ellis Scheinman brings together an ensemble cast including Assa Sidibe, Gedeon Sala, Noor Khan, Tit Kukavica, and Yura Romaniuk to complete the production.
