About

Mostarda, the latest editorial showcase for Harper's Bazaar Italia, serves as a masterclass in modern fashion photography, stripping away excess to focus on the interplay between structured tailoring and raw, human vulnerability. Photographed by Zoë Ghertner, the series leans into a distinct editorial minimalism that feels both timeless and urgent. Whether through the clean, high-contrast framing of black and white analogue film or the vibrant, saturated color stories that populate the studio sessions, the project maintains a cohesive aesthetic centered on texture and architectural silhouettes. With the expert eye of fashion editor and stylist Camille Bidault Waddington, the styling navigates a complex tension between utilitarian elements—seen in belted jackets and crisp shirting—and soft, emotive portraiture. The casting, curated by Anita Bitton, features models like Bebe Parnell, Bodine Van Galen, Frauke Nijs, and Sihana Shalaj, whose steady, direct gazes anchor the images amidst fluid compositions. Supported by the precise hair styling of Tamara McNaughton and the nuanced, clean makeup artistry of Karin Westerlund, the work captures a sense of quiet intimacy. By utilizing natural light to cast deep shadows across hardwood floors and minimalist interiors, the project elevates luxury fashion into a cinematic study of form, proving that the most compelling visual narratives are often those that allow space for the subject to simply breathe within the frame.
