Vogue Netherlands
Goin' straight to the wild wild east
Oct 2026
Goin' straight to the wild wild east is a fashion editorial series for Vogue Netherlands that leans into a rugged, documentary-style aesthetic. Photographed by Jorin Koers, the project captures model Tess Carter across a variety of outdoor and atmospheric settings, from rural roads and weathered concrete landscapes to quiet coastal waterfronts at dusk. The styling, directed by Linda Gumus Gerritsen, features a heavy use of denim, plaid, and western-inspired detailing, offset by intricate buckled trousers and layered tank tops. Hair stylist Magdalena Loza maintains a consistent focus on voluminous, natural curls throughout the shoot, which serves to anchor the high-fashion wardrobe in a relaxed, organic texture. Executed with a pervasive analogue film quality, the series alternates between high-contrast monochrome and warm, saturated natural light to craft a cohesive, retro-tinged narrative. The work balances casual, candid posing with structured editorial compositions, emphasizing the interplay between the subject and the textured, often stark environments.
