British GQ
MALALA
Jun 2025
British GQ presents a series of editorial portraits featuring Malala Yousafzai, lensed by photographer Elizaveta Porodina. The project leans into an ethereal aesthetic, using experimental techniques such as long exposure and multiple exposure to create dreamlike, layered compositions. Fashion styling by Dena Giannini, hair by Anna Cofone, and makeup by Laura Dominique complement the imagery, which frequently employs low-key, chiaroscuro lighting to isolate the subject against dark, moody backdrops. Set design by Miguel Bento further enhances the cinematic quality, incorporating sculptural props and vibrant floral elements that anchor the abstract light trails. The resulting collection maintains a consistent visual rhythm through high-contrast monochromatic and warm-toned frames.
