Beauty Papers presents a series of monochromatic editorial portraits featuring actor Cate Blanchett. Photographed by Luis Alberto Rodriguez, the project leans into a minimalist aesthetic, utilising clean, sculptural forms and high-contrast studio lighting to define the subject's silhouette and attire.
Fashion editor Alister Mackie leads the styling, incorporating textured fabrics and avant-garde garments that contrast against neutral studio backdrops. The series employs analogue film techniques and chiaroscuro lighting to emphasise the tactile surfaces of the wardrobe and the architectural framing of the portraiture, with hair by Olivier Schawalder and makeup by Morag Ross.
