Fantastic Man: Rocco Ritchie

Apr 2025

Fantastic Man features Rocco Ritchie in a series of editorial portraits that lean into a raw, documentary-style aesthetic. Photographed by Oliver Hadlee Pearch, the project explores the interplay between formal studio settings and candid, artistic workspaces. The imagery makes extensive use of monochrome tones and natural light to emphasize texture, from the rugged detailing of workwear to the sharp lines of a high-collar denim ensemble. The editorial narrative is anchored by creative direction from Jop van Bennekom and fashion editing by Jodie Barnes, with editor-in-chief Gert Jonkers overseeing the publication’s signature approach to portraiture. Each composition reflects an analogue film sensibility, balancing clean, direct lighting with more layered, textured backgrounds.
