French Magazine FUTURE PERFECT 2026

About

FUTURE PERFECT is a fashion editorial series for French Magazine that explores the intersection of contemporary menswear tailoring and industrial architecture. The work leans into a polished, clean aesthetic, utilizing architectural backdrops—from tiled surfaces and structural glass blocks to raw stone and metal shutters—to provide a stark, graphic contrast to the collection's avant-garde layering and sharp silhouettes. The series features a range of bold textures, integrating transparent vinyl outerwear, sequined tops, and structured leather ensembles. Through the lens of photographer Lian Benoit, the shoot maintains a consistent focus on fabric contrast and geometry, accented by refined grooming from makeup artist Pascale Poma and styling by fashion editor Marcell Rocha. Models Fuma Maruno, Lamine Seck, and Seunghoo Kim anchor the editorial, which balances classic tailoring with experimental proportions across diverse urban settings. The final imagery is defined by its clean, structured composition and soft natural light.
