Esquire U.S.: Fine Lines

Sep 2025

Fine Lines is a menswear editorial feature for Esquire U.S., captured by photographer Billy Kidd. The project centres on a series of monochrome street-style portraits that highlight contemporary tailored silhouettes, ranging from structured double-breasted pinstripe suits to relaxed-fit formal wear. Set against the urban backdrop of city sidewalks and scaffolding, the shoot leans into natural light and high-contrast composition to emphasise fabric textures and classic tailoring. Styling by Nick Sullivan complements the architecture, incorporating elements like fedoras and layered accessories to define the subjects. The editorial features casting by Barbara Pfister and hair styling by Taichi Saito, with Luca Apple serving as the on-camera model.
