Esquire Italia explores technical winter sportswear in 'The Big Chill,' a high-fashion editorial series. The project highlights a collection of heavily insulated apparel and performance gear, placing the focus on functional silhouettes and layered textiles.
Photographer Alessandro Oliva captures model Arvid Kaldo against a high-key, seamless white background to isolate the intricate textures of the garments. The aesthetic leans into a clean, minimalist editorial style, utilizing soft, even studio lighting to emphasize contrast within the winter palette. Fashion styling by Nik Piras balances heavy puffer jackets, ski suits, and patterned knitwear with precision.
