Elle Germany: So Soft
Sep 2025
For the So Soft project, Elle Germany presents a fashion editorial defined by minimalist architectural lines and an emphasis on tactile layering. Photographer Alex Waltl captures model Mariina Keskitalo across a series of sun-drenched, coastal environments that bridge the gap between structured city aesthetics and serene seaside landscapes. Utilizing a palette of earthy tones and soft, warm hues, the editorial leans into the interplay of light and shadow. The compositions frequently feature natural light to highlight the intricate textures of ribbed knits, structured leather, and silk garments. These shots rely on a clean, editorial aesthetic, often employing analogue film techniques to achieve a nuanced, atmospheric quality within the vertical frames.
