COS

Aug 2023

For the COS Fall 2023 ad campaign, the brand leans into a refined exploration of modern tailoring, anchored by a series of clean, studio-based portraits that define the season’s minimalist identity. Shot by photographer Daniel Jackson, the campaign emphasizes structural precision and tactile material depth, utilizing a balanced mix of studio strobe and natural light to elevate the collection’s muted, earth-toned palette. The imagery channels a sharp, editorial minimalism, foregrounding architectural silhouettes—from oversized pinstriped blazers to structured leather accessories—against seamless, neutral backdrops. Featuring a diverse cast including Kelela, Will Poulter, Curtis Harding, and Havana Rose Liu, the project captures a sense of quiet dynamism through both static compositions and motion-oriented poses. The visual narrative is defined by the collaborative efforts of stylist Jane How, whose work highlights the precise layering of knitwear and tailoring, while hair by Shon Hyungsun Ju and makeup by Petros Pethrohilos provide a polished, classic finish. By blending high-contrast monochrome portraits with dynamic lifestyle frames, the campaign reinforces the brand's commitment to essential, contemporary fashion, successfully merging professional commercial polish with an intimate, contemplative aesthetic that remains distinctly timeless and sophisticated.
