Elle Quebec: JEU LIBRE - Melissa Desormeaux-Poulin

Mar 2025

For the JEU LIBRE editorial feature, Elle Quebec spotlights Canadian actress Melissa Desormeaux-Poulin in a series of striking fashion portraits. Captured by photographer Samuel Fournier, the project leans into a clean, minimalist aesthetic that relies on high-contrast palettes and deliberate, playful framing. The imagery employs sharp flash and natural light to emphasize the textures of contemporary apparel, ranging from structured tweed to intricate lace. Fashion editor and stylist Olivia Leblanc constructs a narrative through bold color-blocking and unexpected accessories, while makeup artist Brit Phatal provides a polished, refined finish to the talent's look. The shoot captures a blend of editorial precision and high-fashion sensibility, maintaining a consistent focus on silhouette and detail across diverse studio backdrops.
