Description
The Belle de Jour editorial series for Grey Magazine Italy explores intimate portraiture through a nostalgic, cinematic lens. Photographed and art directed by Peppe Tortora with editorial oversight from Valentina Ilardi, the project leans into an analogue film aesthetic, utilizing natural light and muted tones to build a moody, atmospheric narrative. The series features a sequence of fashion editorial images that contrast cool, chiaroscuro portraits with warm, grainy interior scenes. Through the use of textured surfaces and varied environmental settings—ranging from cobblestone streets to domestic interiors—the work prioritizes a sense of timeless character study over conventional fashion storytelling.
