Harper's Bazaar France: Libre Comme L'air

May 2025

Libre Comme L'air is a fashion editorial series for Harper's Bazaar France that emphasizes movement, tactile textile design, and architectural geometry. Photographed by Oliver Hadlee Pearch, the project features model Stella Hanan captured in dynamic, mid-motion poses that showcase heavily fringed and layered garments. The visual language leans into a mix of clean studio portraiture and environmental shots staged against complex industrial lattice structures. Fashion editor and stylist Robbie Spencer leads the aesthetic direction, curating an array of textured knits and flowing fabrics that respond to the model's kinetic energy. The editorial utilizes a blend of high-contrast monochrome tones and warm natural light to highlight intricate apparel details, supported by hair styling from Alex Brownsell and makeup by Mel Arter. With set design by Andrew Tomlinson, the series balances technical precision with candid, expressive gestures.
