Fantastic Man: Glenn Martens

Sep 2025

Fantastic Man captures fashion designer Glenn Martens in an expansive editorial feature that highlights the designer's personal aesthetic and textural layering. Photographed by Ilya Lipkin, the series moves between candid urban settings and clean studio environments, utilizing monochrome and natural light to emphasize the structural details of Martens’ attire. The shoot features creative direction by Jop van Bennekom and fashion editing by Robbie Spencer. The editorial leans into a clean, minimalist approach, focusing on the juxtaposition of heavy tailored overcoats and oversized knitwear against unexpected elements like structured waist corsetry. The portraits, ranging from studio sessions set against seamless backdrops to atelier-based shots, rely on soft lighting to render the contrast between leather, denim, and wool textiles.
