Harper's Bazaar España: Simone Biles

Dec 2025

Harper’s Bazaar España features Olympic athlete Simone Biles in this expansive editorial portrait series. Photographed by JuanKr, the feature explores the intersection of elite athleticism and high fashion through a range of studio-based compositions. The imagery moves between high-contrast monochrome portraits and dynamic, action-oriented shots, utilizing low-key chiaroscuro lighting to emphasize form and sculptural silhouette. Fashion editor Claudia Laukamp provides styling that pairs athletic sensibility with eveningwear, featuring embellished metallic gowns, faux fur accents, and intricate textures. Fernando Torrent rounds out the creative team with precise hair styling, while the collection incorporates elements of retro polaroid aesthetic and analogue film techniques to create a raw, sophisticated visual narrative.
