Elle Australia

Sep 2025

This fashion editorial for Elle Australia, captured by photographer Nicole Bentley, explores the interplay of delicate lace textures and sharp, tailored silhouettes. The series moves between minimalist studio settings and windswept coastal environments, relying on soft, diffused lighting to emphasize the intricate details of the garments. The visual narrative is defined by a consistent use of monochrome and desaturated palettes. Naomi Smith’s styling contrasts ruffled collars and sheer layering with structured leather pieces and clean footwear, while hair styling by Koh and makeup by Kristyan Low maintain a cohesive, composed aesthetic across both portrait and full-length editorial frames.
