D Repubblica

Feb 2026

In the Impeccable project for D Repubblica, photographer Karim Sadli delivers a masterclass in editorial minimalism, exploring the tension between architectural garment design and the human form. Through a series of stark, high-contrast images, the shoot leans into an avant-garde aesthetic that feels both timeless and disruptive. Fashion editor and stylist Panos Yiapanis curates a wardrobe defined by structural silhouettes—voluminous tulle, tailored houndstooth, and hooded knits—that command the lens against neutral, seamless backdrops. The project is brought to life by the commanding presence of model Mariacarla Boscono, whose versatile expressions pivot effortlessly between playful and severe. To elevate the visual narrative, makeup artist Lynsey Alexander utilizes bold, graphic pigments in yellow and blue, creating a vibrant counterpoint to the monochromatic intensity of the clothing, while hair stylist Louis Ghewy experiments with sculptural headpieces and knotted fabrics to frame each composition. By alternating between high-key studio strobe lighting and dramatic low-key chiaroscuro, the series transforms high fashion into a study of geometry and shadow. Every frame feels deliberate, stripping away artifice to focus purely on the texture of the textiles and the precision of the styling. This editorial portrait series serves as a testament to the power of collaboration, blending classic fashion codes with an unconventional, forward-thinking sensibility that remains deeply rooted in the traditions of luxury fashion.
