About

Dazed Magazine's 'Sink or swim' editorial explores aquatic themes through a series of composed fashion portraits. Shot by photographer Clara Belleville, the project leans into a clean aesthetic, utilizing architectural tiled interiors, public bathhouses, and pool environments to frame the latest swimwear collections. Under the fashion direction of Imruh Asha and art direction by Gareth Wrighton, the imagery employs natural light to accentuate the textures of the apparel and the surroundings. Styling by Morgane Camille defines the silhouettes, ranging from structured swimwear to layered sets. The production features models including Jessie Craig and Sam Laban, with hair by Vi Sapyyapy and makeup by Adrien Pinault. The casting for the shoot was led by Aymeric, with the project overseen by editor-in-chief Ib Kamara.
