Elle U.S. presents The Romance of Fall Fashion, a sophisticated editorial series captured by photographer Willy Vanderperre. The work features model Karolina Spakowski across a variety of structured, high-fashion silhouettes, emphasizing architectural shapes, layered textures, and bold contrasts.
Technique-wise, the project leans into a clean, minimalist studio aesthetic. The series utilizes a mix of analogue film and natural light to document intricate fabric details, ranging from sculptural tweed and velvet to delicate lace and dramatic plumage. Casting direction by Julia Lange pairs with meticulous beauty work by hair stylist Louis Ghewy and makeup artist Chiao Li Hsu to maintain a cohesive, high-contrast visual identity throughout the collection.
