DOLCE FAR NIENTE is a fashion editorial series produced for Flanelle Magazine, captured by photographer Anton Patdu. The project draws on an evocative, coastal aesthetic, utilizing natural light to frame a series of contemplative portraits in outdoor, architectural settings.
Moving between lush tropical foliage, textured stone backdrops, and the rugged edge of the ocean, the work leans into an earthy, warm colour palette. The imagery makes frequent use of analogue film techniques and grainy textures, lending a tactile, timeless quality to the composition. Through a relaxed, lifestyle-focused lens, the series explores organic movement and soft, cinematic lighting.
