The Blend Magazine
Darker Days, Longer Nights
Oct 2026
Darker Days, Longer Nights is a fashion editorial series produced for The Blend Magazine. The project channels a minimalist aesthetic, pairing structured high-fashion silhouettes with tactile material contrasts, including heavy leather, oversized fur, and delicate embroidery. Photographer Antonio Mingot captures model Kylie Young in a series of clean, studio-based portraits that utilise soft natural light to emphasise texture and form. Fashion direction by Sam Ranger centres on depth and volume, complemented by precise hair styling from Masayoshi Fujita and detailed makeup work by Faye Bluff. The series relies on a clean, desaturated palette punctuated by deep reds and architectural styling techniques.
