Family Style
Risk of Fall
May 2026
Risk of Fall, the latest fashion project from Family Style, operates as a masterclass in editorial minimalism. By stripping away the noise of high-concept sets, the team focuses on the intersection of structure and negative space, resulting in a series of portraits that feel both timeless and deeply intentional. Photographer Léo Arnaud utilizes a rigorous approach to lighting, oscillating between the sharp, technical clarity of studio strobe and the gentle, diffused quality of natural light to accentuate the tactile reality of the garments. Stylist Pia Abbar curates a wardrobe defined by its essentialist silhouettes—ribbed tank tops, wide-leg trousers, and structured leather accents—which serve as the perfect vehicle for this clean, high-key aesthetic. The project finds its emotional anchor in the performance of model Lara Menezes, whose poised, contemplative gaze brings a human element to the otherwise stark, cinematic frames. With casting direction by Anita Bitton and subtle grooming touches by makeup artist Marie Dufresne, the work prioritizes a balanced, centered composition that lets the interplay of shadow and texture take center stage. Ultimately, Risk of Fall reads as a disciplined exercise in luxury fashion house branding, demonstrating that when the craft is this precise, even the most reductive visual language can convey a profound sense of sophistication and enduring style.
