Financial Times - HTSI Magazine

Apr 2025

Financial Times HTSI Magazine presents 'Look East,' a fashion editorial feature showcasing contemporary silhouettes and intricate textile textures. Photographed by Sean and Seng, the series alternates between minimalist studio portraiture and urban exterior settings, utilizing clean lighting and cool-toned color grading to define the visual identity of the spread. Fashion editor Tamara Rothstein orchestrates a series of layered, high-fashion ensembles that blend structured tailoring with fluid, sheer fabrics and retro-inspired motifs. The aesthetic draws on editorial traditions to highlight material contrast, ranging from metallic appliqués to argyle knitwear. Supporting the production are hair stylist Kei Terada and makeup artist Mel Arter, with casting led by Evagria Sergeeva and Helena Balladino.
